Half-Life: A Place in the West News

Hey gang!

We are incredibly excited to announce the release of the eighth chapter of Half-Life: A Place in the West! You can pick up Remnant right now, with it being available to read via our Steam app or as a PDF in your Steam Directory. The art team have done an amazing job, producing what we honestly believe to be our best chapter yet. Yes, we say that every time, but we just feel so confident in our creative growth, and hope you will, too.



Next up is Interlude 8.5 - Shing Optimacy, which we'll be looking to release some time around our anniversary in September. Along with that we're planning to release some other things that have been in the works for some time - translations (both for Russian and for German!), an update to the quality of the comic images delivered, and hopefully a fix for achievements.

We hope you enjoy the new installment as much we do, and can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. It's a game-changer.

Chapter 8, Remnant has been released!

Hey everyone!

We apologise for the radio silence so far this year. We've been busy! Chapter 8 - Remnant is close to completion and will release quite soon. The store page is officially live, so give it a wishlist to be notified of its release! What's the next installment about, then? Good question:

Sejal Rajani’s Opposition have captured City Hall and imprisoned Major General Long – as well as Leyla Poirier and Albert Kempinski.

As Rajani prepares to put Long on trial, the vortigaunt Dreyfus penetrates the mysterious edifice known as Remnant, determined to hunt down an ancient enemy. A shard of metal stripped from the lost Citadel, Remnant’s purpose – and the fate of the kidnapped children – is at last revealed.



I've also been working hard to get achievements up-and-running again. Expect to hear more about that soon. It's been a rough ride, and we apologise. But it really is drawing to an end - promise. At our next update, we'll also give some news on where the translations are - both for Russian, and for a new release of German.

We'll see you up ahead.

Hey gang!

Happy New Year! Just a short update from us:

For the past year Ross has been hard at work on a full-length prequel novel to A Place in the West called Half-Life: Phase Transition. It's not yet complete and won't start releasing until the summer, but as a taste of what to expect we have made the prologue available for reading.



You can find it right here: https://www.halflifenovel.com/chapter/prologue/

Let us know what you think and stay tuned for updates on Chapter 8 - Remnant very soon...

...very soon.

Best,
Mike and Ross

Hey gang!

We hope you've all enjoyed Interlude 7.5 - Castle Okno! We just wanted to drop a quick word to say we've discounted every chapter of the comic for the Steam Winter Sale, as well as both soundtracks. If there's any chapters you're missing, now is a great time to pick them up.

A very Merry Christmas to all of you - stay safe.

Mike and Ross
