Arkhangel back on Steam...and FREE!
[ 2023-11-22 17:10:33 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hey everyone! This is Zack, formerly with WNG. I'm excited to announce that I've successfully transferred Arkhangel to my own business entity. Working closely with Valve, we've managed to relist it on Steam, and I've decided to offer it for free from now on. I apologize for any confusion caused. This change was necessitated by the dissolution of WNG, as the operating costs significantly outweighed Arkhangel's revenue. Additionally, the transfer process was delayed due to the setup of the new business entity for game publishing. Regarding Arkhangel's future, I don't plan to make substantial updates to the title. Maintenance builds have become quite time-consuming, and updating the entire code for compatibility with the latest version of Unity is not a small feat. However, I'm still passionate about this project and might revisit the codebase occasionally, so I won't say it's the end. For Mac users, I'm aware that Steam lists the game as incompatible post-Catalina, but I've managed to run it successfully on Ventura. I will create some tutorials and share them both here and on the itch.io page. In addition, I'll be posting a full walkthrough on these platforms, as the WNG website will also soon be decommissioned. I hope you're all doing well, and I apologize again for any confusion. A big thank you to Valve for their support in this transition. Best regards, Zack

- Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars Linux Depot [4.96 G]
Michael, Lily, and Gabrielle have recently moved to the frigid town of Haven under tragic circumstances. As they begin to rebuild their lives in this new home and meet the townsfolk of Haven, they quickly discover that not everything is what it appears to be. Michael struggles with dreams of dark waters and an unknown ancient evil resting beneath the cold waves. Are these simply dreams or are they a premonition of things to come?
Inspired by the classic point & click adventure games of yesteryear, Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars is a story told through the eyes of a family that has recently moved to an isolated town in the frozen wilderness. Explore, unearth dark mysteries, solve puzzles, engross yourself with deep lore, and interact with a large cast of characters in this rich and layered narrative.
WINTER NIGHT GAMES was borne from the collective imagination of two dorky brothers. A lifelong interest in video games, pen & paper role playing games, and horror stories compelled us to start our own company, where we make the kind of games we like to play and telling the stories we like to tell. WNG came out of what started as a collaborative effort to write a horror novella. While iterating and fleshing out the structure of the story, it became apparent this story would lend itself to being told within the medium of an adventure game. A larger framework was then conceived, which could support an overarching story that could be told through various gaming media, both digital and analog.
A SPECIAL NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER:
While there isn't overt gore or on-screen violence in Arkhangel, there is subject matter and imagery that some might find disturbing. This is a mature game experience.
We recommend playing Arkhangel with a game controller. Give it a try!
