PLAYTEST THE NEW SOUL PARK BETA NOW!

SOUL PARK is getting a BIG update! But we can't risk shipping new content without making sure it is completely playable and bug free first. From now on we will be launching new updates in beta first, and make an official release once we are sure everything is polished and stable. This should also allow players that want new content more regularly to get a hand on WIP features. If you want to test the new 0.29.0 update while it's still in beta, please follow the instructions on this image to enter the beta participation program:
After that, Steam should automatically update your game to match the beta version. If that's not the case and SOUL PARK is still in the same version, you can try forcing it by verifying the integrity of the game files:
If that doesn't work, it probably means your game version is already up to date.

On the new update


The new 0.29.0 update is a pretty big shift from 0.28.4, as it introduces new game mechanics such as a day/night cycle, new currencies, a new minigame, a new important character and a lot of other improvements and balancing changes. We're really happy to finally give you the opportunity to play it and we'd love to have your feedback on it. Please share your experience with us on the SOUL PARK Steam community page: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2992460

See you on the other side!

UPDATE 0.29.0 DAY & NIGHT

Satanas is shaking up the rhythm of the game!


Every 3 minutes, night sets in and gives the player new possibilities: will you try to regain ground from corruption? Or will you go visit CHESTER, the new treasurer of the underworld? For the occasion, the park interface has been refined to better match the atmosphere of the game. There are many other changes, namely: new currencies, new dialogues, new animations, and a major economic rebalancing to boost your purchasing power in the game. The next update will be a bit smaller and should complete what was imagined for this one but could not be implemented yet. Expect a second new character, a thematic reinforcement of the SOUL PARK universe, and a new mechanic to prevent tears of corruption from spawning during the day! I imagined this update with my girlfriend Maryne, which unofficially makes it the first update released as an independent game studio rather than as a solo developer! Thank you to everyone that is a part of our small community, your trust and fervor will pay off!
