No need to use beta branch anymore to access Suburbia! See other changes below.
Patch notes, what's added lately:
- Linux support
- 64bit MacOS support
- Suburbia map
- 3 cars
- map view (hold TAB during gameplay)
- option to limit robbery spot count and also option to use endless spots
- hard mode / instakill option in the Arena
- control mapping options: now also ctrl, alt, shift and mouse buttons can be mapped as game buttons
- various bug fixes
What's this... a map update?
Suburbia level is currently available in beta branch and will be added later as a regular update.
If you want to try it already, opt in to beta by selecting Pako 2 in your Steam library and:
Properties > Betas > Beta Participation > latest
Download the latest patch and try playing in "Chase camera" / 3rd person view!
The original bird's eye view is also still available.
You can find the setting after the Stage Selection screen. There's also a "Practice mode" where you can explore maps without cops and robbers.
That's all at this time, happy midsummer everyone, and be sure to check out the ongoing Steam sales!
If you have wondered is there ever going to be an alternative chase camera mode added in PAKO 2, the answer is definitely maybe.

Hi there!
Soundtrack release got delayed couple days because of various issues but here it is! These are just some of the songs, but more arranged to album way, since in-game they have to be bit different. There has been also requests to bring back some of the songs from the Early Access version and that is also considered, maybe a vol.2 and a separate "radio channel" for them?
Anyways, you can listen/purchase it here, or later this week from Steam:

I hope you like it!

Hello there!
This week there is LOTS. We are very close to the release.
2 new levels
Lets start with the two remaining locations for the launch version of the game, Motor Bay and Golden Sands! Motor Bay is dense urban map with lots of side streets, drainage canals and factories. Also included some train tracks that might or might not be clever to use! This is probably the hardest map in the game. Golden Sands is a small casino city with very level design, so not much bumps here! Traffic is pretty heavy though on the main streets so good tip is to use the smaller side streets for quicker routes!
5 new cars
- Isoville - Camel - Freak Bus - Road King - Wanderer Road King and Wanderer are unlocked after completing Golden Sands and are both some of the best cars in the game.
Other changes:
- Bugfixes and optimization - Visuals improved on some of the maps - New color grading for all the maps - Arena is unlocked after completing Golden Sands
What's next?
Both of the new maps are still bit work in progress but we are very VERY near the finish line here,biggest thing still to be added is the final soundtrack. Let us know how the new stuff works for you and have a blast playing Pako 2!

Hi again! There's an update patch available with some changes. Just a couple of things added, fixed and improved, while we continue building the next maps. :)
The Car Shop has been remodeled and given some extra space for more cars to be added in future
"Photo Mode" can now be enabled also after your car is crashed

Some new stuff added, bugs fixed and visual polishing done this week! Now in the game over screen, player gets notified of next unlockable item and also gets info if there's something to buy in the shop areas with the updated amount of money.
Just to remind you to check your crib (which btw can be found in Title menu > Progress) every now and then, we added a notifier in the title menu. :) It shows a small note if there's new furniture etc. gained.
Other things. "Extra life" perk felt too powerful so we removed it from the stack for now and added "Sidekick" perk instead. The new perk spawns a friendly helper car which joins the fight on your side.

Hi yall!
We decided to put one more level out separately, opposed to our original idea of releasing the rest as one update! This is Misty Fields, and it will be placed as the second area of the game, after Devils Plains. Misty Fields consists of a town in a crossing of two highways, and some more nature-oriented areas with frozen lake and falls, and a field that leads to a small pond. Area is covered in pretty heavy fog but luckily you have your lights on! This is also still work in progress, so we would love to hear your opinion about it!
Other additions this week:
- Devils Plains Quarry area has been completely redone
- Automatic guns bullet assets reworked
- Skybox fixed for Devils Plains
- Chopper Defense perk makes it possible to destroy the chopper

Hi there!
Here is some new previews of one of the new maps (Motor Bay). It is inspired by Robocop style Detroit, LA (storm drains) and generally lots of movies like Blues Brothers.
Also, we have a car factory there that needs a name! Give us your best shots and we pick the best one to be name of the company on a big sign next to the car factory!
Have a nice weekend and keep playing!
