Angels That Kill - The Final Cut Released Two Game Bundle

It sure has been a while since we have put out anything for Angels That Kill, but in this final update there should be enough to justify that.

Angels That Kill - The Final Cut Features

A new field of view slider and broader options. Now you can view Noll City in a much more customizable way, along with now having a better selection of the camera sensitivity option and the audio level.
A cleaner and more efficient inventory. Get a better read on what items mean to your characters, and have a better understanding of their thoughts with a cleaner journal.
Easier means of navigation. A bad map with poor communication is no way to find points of interest, but now that is a problem of the past with being able to see birds guiding you the way through buildings when focusing in on them.
Plenty of bug fixes, updated menus, reworked mechanics, and more. Enjoy having more responsive menus, tighter character controls, significantly less bugs, and new effects to bring everything together.

With this update we are also releasing a two game bundle which includes both Angels That Kill - The Final Cut and Slave RPG for 25% off, or (we think according to how it should be set up) 12.5% off of each individually if you own the other respectively. This also includes a price change for Angels That Kill, which now sits at a cool and crisp $4.99. An upcharge is a little odd generally, but this game has had a whole slew of price changes and this seems like a good "forever" price in addition to the update and bundle. We know that this has been a long road and that this update includes pretty basic features that should have launched with the game, but we didn't really know much of what we were doing back then (not like we know much more now), and this update comes as a bit of a farewell from us to the project. We are firm believers that more work on a game could be done, and this is far from perfection, but from strangling with the old and out of date code, to attempting and figure out how to merge old methods with newer cleaner ones, this seems like a nice resting point. So thank you to everyone who has left feedback or criticism, thank you to everyone who supported us through up to this point and with the release of our second game, and thank you to those in the future who may stumble across this game in the vast sea of Steam games and decide to give it a try.

Slave RPG 0.15 is now out!

The first major update to our new game, Slave RPG is out now!

https://youtu.be/3JhkfQCXxSQ The first update for our game Slave RPG is out now and improves on numerous mechanics while introducing some new ones. With this update we have doubled the world size meaning that we can now place in a lot more locations to the world, while also making it feel more up to scale with what we are trying to build. We have also made the slave dens an explorable place rather than just having it show the players status screen in order to help make everything a more concrete experience, rather than a series of screens with black backgrounds to go through. We also worked on the combat significantly, and while it is still not quite up to where we would like to see it, it defiantly provides more gameplay and focus than it did prior. Races also now gain specific bonuses depending on the race category the player chooses. In Slave RPG there are six races to choose from with three categories defining them, those categories are: Arhat, Dukkha, and Sunyata. The Arhat will receive more dialogue options, the Dukkha will receive lower priced items from the shop, and the Sunyata will be immune to radiation fog. We have also fixed a few bugs that we found while play-testing the first public build, and have balanced the game a bit more to help provide a clearer means of playing. We also have a public poll on our Patreon available so that we can get some feedback for what we should focus on in the next update, you can find that here. Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far and we hope you have a good day! Patreon IndieDB Our Website

Slave RPG 0.1 is now available

We have launched the first public version of Slave RPG on Patreon!

https://youtu.be/ker-ZgAV_Hw Slave RPG is our attempt at a role playing game that attempts to take aspects of older classic role playing games and present it in a familiar yet modern way. It is a dystopian game that finds the player under the control of an aggressive militia in a distant future where the housing market bubble had a much larger effect on the world. Not to worry, the initial launch will include a free build, and even after that you will be able to gain access to builds at the minimum of a $1 pledge on Patreon. Below you can find more information on some of the latest game changes leading up to this release, as well as several different links. Patreon IndieDB Our Website What all is new from the previous announcement:

More refined SADDAC system
New dialogue system
Overall UI redesigns
Graphics for the player character
Several difficulty options
Basic story/redefined combat setup for future updates
Much more modding capabilities
A plethora of tweaks and fixes

Well lets start off with the refined SADDAC system, and what better way to do that, than with another bulleted list.

Strength: The core stat that determines the player's health and nutrition. Similar to the Charisma core stat, increasing this will provide the player with more dialogue options.
Attack: The core stat that determines the total amount of attacking power the player has.
Defense: The core stat that determines the total amount of defending power the player has, as well as their defense probability.
Dexterity: The core stat that determines the player's action points, attack probability, and defense probability.
Agility: The core stat that determines the player's movement speed. (When we update the combat this will also be used to determine the rate at which the player can attack.)
Charisma: The core stat that allows the ability for the player to unlock more dialogue options.

The new dialogue system is much more reminiscent of older cRPGs and features a much broader range of material for each NPC. Previously, each NPC only had their own list of topics and an occasional speech check based on Charisma. Now each NPC gains the same dialogue options, with a much larger quantity, as well as speech checks based on both Strength and Charisma. New topics for the player to choose from will unlock the more the player talks with other NPC and should provide a much more streamlined experience than how it was setup before.

We also added a pause menu with dedicated options and typical submenus that you would find in a pause menu for any other game. Why the thought to add this eluded me for so long, I will never know, but because of it the UI at the bottom of the screen is significantly improved. Now the player will have a dedicated status bar at the bottom of the screen with set options to go along with it, meaning that just like the new dialogue system, we are one step closer to a traditional cRPG. We also added graphics for the player character as well as portraits of them for the new status bar, this means that you will be able to customize your look when starting a new game now. Currently the player look is not capable of being modded, nor is it affected by race/origins, but we hope to add this soon. Difficulty is now used to determine a final score and ranking for the end game screen and when we implement achievements, this will affect what is unlocked for the player. We have also added several difficulty options (bulleted list incoming) including:

Overall difficulty: This will affect enemies overall attack and defense, providing for more challenging combat.
Game time: This will affect the players starting debt and total amount of money gained from various actions, making for either a shorter or longer experience.
Weather: This will affect how deadly the weather around the player is, and how rapidly it changes.
Iron Man mode: This will change the players character to being set to a mode where if you die, it will delete your saved games and you will have to start completely over.

While neither are implemented in this first public release, we know that the game lacks any proper story for the player to go through and the combat is fairly dull. We have set up various nodes in the gameworld for story events to take place in the future, but we dont want to start adding that in yet as we are still working on the details and want to finish the base mechanics first. As far as the combat goes, that should be improved upon in the next update and will allow for a more traditional turn based combat with timed actions.

We have also expanded upon the ability for players to mod the game by including various options in the new mod menu that will allow for the ability to change mod packs, turn on or off various aspects of mod packs, and change the texture filter type. Hopefully from here we can expand further by allowing more aspects of the game to be modded, like the UI border and game text. That is going to be all for now, but we appreciate all of the support you guys have given us so far and we hope to see you along for this game as well. Become a Patron!

Silhouette & Some Other Stuff

Recently we have discovered that another indie game on Steam by the name of, Silhouette, has a pretty similar style as Angels That Kill. We have talked to the creator and we both have found it pretty amusing, so we here at Rising Sun Interactive wanted to send our congratulations to Apeirogon Games for being able to really create the type of game that we had originally planned for Angels That Kill. Other than that we are still working hard on our next project, Slave RPG, and can hope to start some beta testing relatively soon. The game will take place in the Texas Wasteland in and around Parker County, where our studio is located. Currently it has five small towns to explore and an arena to battle through. We are working hard on expanding it until we feel confident to release some screenshots and more information, for a general list of features you can always visit our website risingsuninteractive.com. Also make sure to check out Apeirogon Games apeirogon-games.com and their game Silhouette, right here on Steam. Thank you all for your support and have a baller day!

Update 1.9 Minor Setback

Major Game Update: 1.7

Recently we have been a bit busy with personal reasons so we haven't had the ability to make any announcements, but we didn't stop working on the game! We have talked amongst ourselves and taken everyone's feedback into consideration, and we believe that we were wrong in our initial pricing of the game and that we feel much more comfortable offering the game at a lower price for everyone to enjoy, so as of now you can purchase the game for 2.99 USD. Aside from updating Angels That Kill, we have also been working on our next major project titled "Synthetic Dreams". It is a cyberpunk strategy shooter focusing heavily around its gameplay, Angels That Kill was a fun project for us, but we want to make something much more direct and gameplay focused. We also know that the first build for Synthetic Dreams is nothing impressive, but we did include it in the latest Angels That Kill build (as a .zip file: steamapps/common/Angels That Kill/SD version 0.0.1) so that everyone can see what we are doing with our time and gain an understanding for what we are hoping to create. Here are the patch notes for the latest build: Angels That Kill: Change-Log 1.7 ADDITIONS: -added another dumpster near the police station -added traffic cones -added a small garden in front of one of the buildings -added the option of using the hunger system when playing(can be changed by selecting "restart" in the game pause menu, or on the main menu after completing the game) -added a bit more general dialogue TOUCH UPS/FIXES: -touched up the camera blur amount in the tutorial -touched up the hunger meter in the "Two Dark Nights" gamemode -touched up the company logo -touched up the cursor to have a white outline to be easier to see -touched up the chapter names to progressively become more red -touched up the "loading" symbol to become red after completing the game once -fixed potential issue in chapter 3 where Baley would state "I'm tired...." and it would not turn off -fixed some spelling errors in the "Two Dark Nights" gamemode CHANGES: -changed the version number -changed the name of the "classic" mode option in the main menu after unlocking 100%

This does not mean that we are just going to ride along and wait for the price drop, we will continue to support the game through fixing any issues, or by adding more to the game. We believe that there is always more that we can do for games that we can create, and while we know that at some point we will no longer be able to support every game we create(because of any potential personal reasons, too much works, or lack of on-hand laborers), we believe that the support for Angels That Kill still has a while to go. We are currently overlooking the audio design of the game and seeing what all we can improve upon there. We do appreciate all of the feedback and support form you guys and we hope that we can continue to provide worthy content for you all.

Steam is currently approving the change in price so it might not change for a little bit, but it will. As always thank you all for the feedback and have a great day.

Indie Casual Singleplayer

Angels That Kill is a dark, first person adventure game. It tells the story of two men as they uncover the truth behind a murder that has shaken the city. Play through both sides of the story and discover the truth behind the murder.

Play as Micheal Bickel, a Vietnam War veteran that now works as a Noll City detective, and play as James Baley, a drunk and drug-ridden retired boxer who has lost everything and moved to Noll City to start again. Go through the different days playing as both characters and work around the case, interact with the population and make decisions that could affect a number of people. Hide, run, investigate, explore, and discover while becoming a part in Noll City in this tragic time.

Play both sides of the story.
Go through both the suspects and the investigators story, to discover the truth and interact with the people of Noll City. Play through two different perspectives and have unique interactions based off of who you play as.

Stay alive under a steel sky.
Keep a watch on and maintain your hunger level by scavenging through dumpsters to stay alive in this deserted time. Every scrap of food you take for one character is another lost for the other, so make sure you balance your portions carefully.

Explore all your options.
Just because there is a story doesn't mean that you cant help make it, choose between right and wrong, make decisions you didn't mean to, and discover your own ending.

Unlock and play through alternate game modes.
As you progress through the main campaign you will be able to unlock more game modes to play around in.

Explore the world.
It might not be the biggest game ever made, but it is packed full of secrets and goodies waiting to be discovered.

Immerse in a noire inspired world.
Every aspect of the game has been carefully detailed to appeal to any noire(or noir) lover.

Change the world to your choosing.
You have the ability to change the amount of rainfall, the amount of fog, the lighting, and more.
