New Soul Skins

New soul skins have been added to the game. Check them out in the customization screen!

SoulRace Checkpoints

We have added checkpoints in the soul race maps, so when you get killed, you do not have to start all over. You will spawn from the checkpoint you have last reached.

Demo release

Are your friends playing SoulHunt? Do you want to play along, but you dont have the game yet? Well you could of course always just buy the game too, we would like that :) But we understand that you want try before you buy, so we have come up with a solution. Drumroll please We now have a DEMO! We have released a demo version where you can try the game out for free for a limited period of time. With our demo version, you will be able to play both with people who only have the demo, and with people who have actually bought the game. Go hunt those Souls!

Discount for a limited time!

We also have SoulHunt on sale for a limited time so be quick if you want to buy the game!

Main menu refresh

The main menu screen has been updated to make it easier to get started in a room. However, you will still be able to create and join custom games just like it used to be.

Bug fixes

Synchronization issue of player movement has been fixed! (Shoutout to Rubixus and Connor!) We also fixed a bug where you got disconnected when a new players joins the room while you as the master client were still loading the map. If you like to see what technically the problem was you can check out the forum post here Networking performance improvements should also decrease the amount of disconnects.

New game mode

As we have been working on smaller features, we also have been working on our new game mode “SoulRace”. This game mode is finally ready for release! [Insert joy] Check out our trailer here.
Now, how does this new game mode work? You will be a random prop, for example a chicken, a fetus, a fire extinguisher, etc. and with this prop you will have to race for your life and reach the end point first. Easy right?
Here is the catch, you will be annoyed by your fellow players. Push each other off cliffs, force ragdoll states, breakdance right in the middle of jumps... Only those skilled enough will survive and leave their friends behind.
2.500 points are given to the winner of the race, but you will also get points for killing off other players. On the other hand you will also lose points if you die yourself.
Now let the race begin! Patch notes v0.1.0 08/18/2017:

New Features

• Added new game mode: SoulRace.
• Added basic scoring system.
• Added game rounds, after an amount of rounds the map will change.
• Added stats on scoreboard.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed Robot sensor skill how to play text not matching actual time of skill.

• Sprint will not consume soul power when you are not moving.
