Hey everyone! Today, we’re very pleased to announce the release of the Russian translation of Chapter 3: The Pit, provided courtesy of the very talented Vsevolod Stepanov and Pavel Lapinsky (translation and lettering, respectively)! Whilst we've been a little slow on the translation front, we are dedicated to integrating the comic with as many languages as possible, time and means permitting! For the time being, to our Russian readers, we hope you enjoy this next installment of Half-Life: A Place in the West! We've started doing lettering for additional languages and will have those available soon. So, where are we at in terms of production? We'll be doing an anniversary celebration for the 30th of September that will include the next "Interlude" (previously described as "shorts") along with a series of application updates. The interlude is called "Nal Sidian" and will explore a piece of the vortigaunt Dreyfus' backstory. Chapter 4: "A Spy in the House of Long" went into production a couple weeks ago, and is making great progress! After the debacle in The Pit, tensions within New Franklin reach boiling point, culminating in a confrontation between the Opposition and the Governor! We’re very proud of the script and can't wait to share it with you all. The story's starting to really move now (finally…!)

What is A Place in the West?
Half-Life: A Place in the West is a fan-made comic book set within Valve's acclaimed Half-Life universe. A Place in the West follows three characters who are each in their own way drawn to a strange American city called New Franklin. Once inside, they discover a powerful secret, but the city holds many dangers, deceptive temptations, and a society on the brink of madness...A Place in the West offers a compelling story and a complex and intriguing cast of all-new characters, drawing on the rich mythology of the Half-Life universe in an entirely new medium for the series. There will be six issues in total. The first issue, Following Portents, was originally released online for free in 2015. We ran a Greenlight Campaign to bring it to Steam to share with you all.
Do I need to be familiar with Half-Life?
Nope! As part of bringing this comic book to Steam, we are adding a 3-page prologue that will make it accessible to everyone. A Place in the West is also set in the interim between Half-Life and Half-Life 2, which means that you needn't be familiar with Valve's later games anyway. That isn't to say, however, that you won't find exciting things to enjoy if you are familiar with the series.Features
A Place in the West's first issue will be made available for free using our specially designed app, and will include 5 entirely new pages.Additional features include:
- Immediate language support for English and Russian, with further plans to include more translations in the future.
- A fully-animated menu screen, complete with audio, in the vein of Half-Life.
