Greetings, Viceroys!
We’re super happy to announce our fun little collaboration with Virtual Cottage 2.
You can now listen to 7 lo-fi remixes of existing Against the Storm tracks in Virtual Cottage 2, and decorate your virtual study with items inspired by the game.
Virtual Cottage 2 is a customizable desktop companion for work and study, available on Steam. It lets you create to-do lists, track activity time, customize ambient sounds, play lo-fi music, and study together with other people in a customizable, cozy space.
We used Virtual Cottage during the development of Against the Storm to stay focused while working on complex tasks and learning new skills. So when DU&I announced they were looking for music creators for the sequel, we knew we wanted to take part.
All the lo-fi remixes were arranged and remixed by our team member, Mikołaj Kurpios - Against the Storm’s composer and sound designer. Against the Storm OST enjoyers, rejoice!
Aside from the tracks, DU&I - creators of Virtual Cottage - also updated the app with fantastic decorations inspired by Against the Storm, which you can place in your cozy study
You can find more details about the new Virtual Cottage 2 update here. We also want to thank the whole DU&I team for creating such wholesome decorations!
We encourage you to check out Virtual Cottage 2, especially if you’re looking for a tool to stay focused and motivated, but also if you want to support small, creative teams, like DU&I.
Additionally, all the lo-fi tracks from the collaboration are now available on Spotify and other popular streaming services. We’ve also uploaded an animated “lo-fi girl”-style music video on YouTube:
The Supporter Pack on Steam has also been updated with the new art in 4K quality, and all the lo-fi tracks have been added to the Steam OST and are available for download in .mp3, .flac, and .wav formats. The Supporter Pack on other platforms will also be updated soon.
You can find detailed instructions on how to access the Supporter Pack contents in this guide:
We wish you a peaceful, tranquil time with the new tracks and hope you’ll enjoy Against the Storm content in Virtual Cottage 2.
May the storm be gentle on you,
Eremite Games (and DU&I)
