Adventure / Point-n-Click / Narrative Games

The game is great, but (IIRC) one of the later puzzles requires you to go out-of-game to check their kickstarter -video for a solution - which I guess is "cool" due to the metanarrative (assuming I use the word right), but... I do prefer games to be bit more self-contained. Is the game going to be "softlocked" once the kickstarter-campaign page gets taken down or so?

I haven't played the game since I got it after release, who knows, they might have fixed the ks-video requirement.
