Crucial changes are being made to Party Hard. It's been bugging me so much, I just can't take it out of my head. Got to tell someone. Or better write it down in my log. You, that is.
1. An old main menu background (that really tied the game together) is gone. Devs say they replaced it because it had caused the game to go all blackscreen sometimes. I believe them. So, now we've got a new main menu background. It's still good old look out of the window but now it's like this: Devs say they have moved from one place where cars drive by all the time at low framerate to another where some guy tries to get some sleep at 3:00 a.m. As far as this statement goes, I doubt they're telling the truth. I smell some kind of... something. --------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Local co-op is now unavailable for those who haven't beat the tutorial. Sounds too cruel to me. It's like not allowing people who listen to Nickelback to reproduce. Wait... --------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Fonts in main menu have been improved. Now their shadows display the way they should and don't switch layers, but... There had been something about the old buggy fonts that I just can't forget. Call me retrograde as much as you want. --------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Sometimes in order to quit the game you had to hover and click the "QUIT" button twice. Devs have fixed this to "save your precious time". I think they shouldn't have. Because it had taught you how not to be a puny quitter. But hey, who listens to me anyway... --------------------------------------------------------------- Well, that's it for now, Dear Log. It's late and I need to get some sleep, but I just can't. That godd/\mn noise just won't let me sleep a freaking wink. Gotta do something about it.

We know, we missed you too. And while you have been partying hard, we've been working. HARD! You're lucky we love you too much. Because not only we're not mad at cha for your laziness, but we are even upgrading the in-game Level Editor for you! Here's your detailed Upgrade Guide.
ːpartyknifeː
NEW BACKGROUNDS
(Where this new stuff is: CONSTRUCTION / BACKGROUNDS) Dark Castle, Porn Studio, Skyscraper, Police Department. What do these levels have in common? Correct, Albert: they scroll. But as advanced as those maps may be... they are not true scrolling levels until you can edit them. And now you can—via the Workshop. ---------------- Dark Castle: Deep in the Carpathians stands an old mysterious castle... When the sun dies over it, evil claims its reign inside. Vile creatures crawl out from under ancient tombstones to begin their blasphemous banquet. And it is you who holds this banquet! ----------------- Porn Studio: Someone's trying to get some sleep? Them fools can forget it! Because you are filming some adult junk and raving out loud at the same time right around the bend. Studio is a perfect playground for you to have fun with your toys...ːpartylipsː ---------------- Skyscraper: Throw a crazy party in a Die Hard setting and then slaughter every human / animal / alien you've put in there. If you are scared of heights, let your friends tackle the issue. ------------------- Police Department: Creating a prison to be locked in? Even Houdini couldn't have dreamt of such a luxury. Turning a police station into a bullfighting arena in not a pipe dream anymore.
ːpartypoliceː
SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS
(Where this new stuff is: Surv. cameras: FURNITURE / EQUIPMENT; Surv. guards: PEOPLE / SPECIAL) Say you think Party Hard isn't hard enough. sounds a bit far-fetched Suit yourself and make it harder by placing survaillance cams all over the place. But, please, don't cry when security manhandles you.
ːpartymaskː
DOORS, LOCKED WITH KEYS
(Where this new stuff is: Doors: CONSTRUCTION / STRUCTURE; Keys: TRAPS / ITEMS) Same here. Bring some logic to the table, make some doors actually locked (authentic experience) and swallow place the keys near an angry dog.
ːpartypillsː
NEW WALLS, NEW TILE AND OTHER NEW STUFF
(Where this new stuff is: Walls: CONSTRUCTION / WALLS, Tile: CONSTRUCTION / FLOOR) Go old-school with chain-link fencing, honor Pink Floyd with a classic white brick wall, and create penitentiary vibe using a barbed wire barrier.
ːpartydiskː
BUG FIXES
Once upon a time there was a wicked bug. It caused the game to crash when the brave party killer plugged in his faithful controller. It has been fixed. End of the fairy tale.
We've also fixed a bunch of other minor issues too so game's gotten even better.
-----------------
Well, that's kinda it for the guide. We hope you'll have a lot of fun with the upgraded Workshop and with the game in general!
