Major Game Update: 1.7
We have talked amongst ourselves and taken everyone's feedback into consideration, and we believe that we were wrong in our initial pricing of the game and that we feel much more comfortable offering the game at a lower price for everyone to enjoy, so as of now you can purchase the game for 2.99 USD.
Aside from updating Angels That Kill, we have also been working on our next major project titled "Synthetic Dreams". It is a cyberpunk strategy shooter focusing heavily around its gameplay, Angels That Kill was a fun project for us, but we want to make something much more direct and gameplay focused. We also know that the first build for Synthetic Dreams is nothing impressive, but we did include it in the latest Angels That Kill build (as a .zip file: steamapps/common/Angels That Kill/SD version 0.0.1) so that everyone can see what we are doing with our time and gain an understanding for what we are hoping to create.
Here are the patch notes for the latest build:

We have also gotten back from Steam, and it turns out there is a recommended policy put in place preventing price changes from recently added games, the game will still receive a price change, but it will not be for a while.
This does not mean that we are just going to ride along and wait for the price drop, we will continue to support the game through fixing any issues, or by adding more to the game. We believe that there is always more that we can do for games that we can create, and while we know that at some point we will no longer be able to support every game we create(because of any potential personal reasons, too much works, or lack of on-hand laborers), we believe that the support for Angels That Kill still has a while to go.
We are currently overlooking the audio design of the game and seeing what all we can improve upon there. We do appreciate all of the feedback and support form you guys and we hope that we can continue to provide worthy content for you all.

We have also made the decision to change the default price from 14.99 USD to 9.99 USD. This means that while it is on sale you should be able to get it for around 7.00 USD. We apologize to the people that have already bought the game at it's old price, but we have made this decision based off of the feedback from you guys. Steam is currently approving the change in price so it might not change for a little bit, but it will. As always thank you all for the feedback and have a great day.
