- Keep Your Politics Bundle now available! - 26 April 2021
https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/20653/ “Politics is not a game, but a serious business.” Winston Churchill. We’re very excited to announce the launch of the Keep Your Politics bundle of six indie games. There’s a 10% discount for the entire bundle - and each game has a special sale price available (for a limited time) to compound your savings as we celebrate the launch of this awesome bundle of acclaimed titles. It’s a Complete-The-Set bundle so you only pay for the games you don't yet own. These games span a variety of gameplay genres and tell stories from different spaces and times - imagined and real.

- Introducing: Fire Escape - 21 April 2020
Steam friends, today we are very excited to share that our newest title, FIRE ESCAPE will be releasing on Steam next Wednesday, April 29th! Fire Escape is a narrative game inspired by Hitchcock’s anxiety driven storytelling. Set in Crown Heights, Brooklyn - when the night strikes eight o’clock, a suspenseful muder-mystery begins to unfold in real time. It’s best described as what happens when “Immersive theatre meets game design.” Players have free roam to choose which apartment to spy on, but for every story beat you see, you miss many more. In Fire Escape, the details truly matter. With over five hours of motion capture performances, Fire Escape’s story is told in three replayable episodes of twenty minutes each. Launching with support for both Steam VR (Valve Index, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift) and Non-VR (Windows, no headset required), Fire Escape is also compatible with Steam Achievement…

- Game Sales to benefit the ACLU until Feb 10th! - 2 February 2017
Hi Steam Friends, We're a company of immigrants, from many different countries, who have all come to America to pursue our dreams of making games that are fun, valuable, and try to make the world a little better place. We made 1979 Revolution: Black Friday to show people a different point of view, to have them engage with a different culture, and to discover the similarities we all share. In response to President Trump's executive order on immigration ban - we're donating all proceeds from iNK Stories' to the ACLU Nationwide until Feb 10th. Now more than ever, empathy and dialogue is important, and we hope that 1979 Revolution: Black Friday is just one example of the many different ways we can all express our diversity and common humanity. Thanks! iNK Stories
