• Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars Novel Launches March 5th! - 26 February 2024

  To the Esteemed Supporters of Arkhangel, I'm thrilled to announce a pivotal moment in our Arkhangel journey. On March 5th, "Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars" transitions from game to narrative, available in Kindle, paperback, and hardcover formats. This expansion into the literary world enables us to explore the atmospheric mysteries and occult horrors of Arkhangel in a new light. For those who've journeyed with us through the game, this novella offers a deeper dive into the lore and darkness that you've come to know. The Kindle version is open for preorders now, and your early support greatly enhances our visibility on Amazon, contributing significantly to the success of this venture. While Winter Night Games may no longer exist as an official business entity, the soul and spirit behind it live on through this novella. Your enthusiasm and support have been the cornerstone of Ark…

• Arkhangel back on Steam...and FREE! - 22 November 2023

  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…

• August 17th, 2019: Maintenance Patch! - 17 August 2019

  Hey all! Just a quick note to let you know we pushed a small update to Arkhangel. This is more of a quality of life/maintenance patch than anything. Here's a brief rundown: * Fixed an audio oddity in the Asylum on Day 1 when you talk with Elizabeth * Adjusted Gabrielle's dialogue when she's standing in the attic in Day 1 when you are playing as Michael * Fixed a rare (but potentially evil) save/load bug in Day 6 that could promote a progression issue. * Provided an additional fix for people that might have already experienced said save/load bug. Mac OSX, Windows 32-bit, and Windows 64-bit builds all updated. Have a great weekend, -Winter Night Games

• ​Arkhangel is now $8.99/£6.19...FOREVER!! - 29 July 2019

  Greetings all! One year ago (well...one year ago on the 27th), we released our first project, "Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars". This was a labor of love for both Josh and myself that took over five years of figuring out what the hell we were doing, realizing we're dumb, RE-figuring out what we were doing, sobbing openly, and then eventually releasing a game. We learned a lot and we would change a lot, but we are proud of our little game. Is it perfect? Of course not. We've been listening to player feedback, we pushed out a few major updates, and there are a few things on our road map that we'd like to address, but for now, we're just happy that it's out there and has over 1000 players and wanted to celebrate by dropping the price to $8.99/£6.19 PERMANENTLY and hope that more people want to join the party! Thanks for all of the support over the last year and stay tuned for more…

• 64-bit (Windows) Executable now uploaded - 18 January 2019

  Hey all! We have pushed a new build that includes an 64-bit executable for Windows along with a handful of UI bug fixes. Not a huge update, but an important one. Here's a quick list: 1) New 64-bit Windows version. Hopefully, this will help with the random Win10 crash reports we've seen. Steam should automatically play the 64-bit version if you are running a 64-bit OS. 2) UI bug fix: You can no longer open your inventory during a QTE 3) UI bug fix: Hotspot interaction while your inventory is open has been disabled 4) There was a random point where Gabrielle could get pushed to the other end of a level and it was hilarious...but decided it should be fixed. :-) As always, let us know if you come across something strange. Always happy to help track oddities down! -WNG
