Yes, Party Hard is getting a Level Editor via Steam Workshop!

And yes, you will be able to go wild by creating your own parties. Constructing the editor meant refactoring the game, and we can't wait to see what you creative murderers come up with!

Tell us what you'd want to create

Please, share your ideas on what would be the first thing you'd try to create. This will help the dev team to understand if we're going in the right direction.

Happy partying!

Oh, hi!

Yes, we are still working on Party Hard. This update makes sure we are able to add more content later and allows us to release on more platforms.

Performance update

A huge performance update for Party Hard is now live. It addresses multiple issues that impact framerate, and should result in a much smoother experience, especially in terms of loading times.

It's a little-known fact that Party Hard has been developed in record time (only about 6 months), while it should've been an 18 month-development project. The game was being designed on the go with real-time feedback, and resulted in what we have now. We spent the last month on refactoring the game's code to enable it to run on more platforms.

Kindle Fire TV release

During the development we've had tons of help from Amazon, so the first non-desktop platform we're releasing on is Kindle Fire TV. The game is now available at http://www.amazon.com/tinyBuild-Party-Hard/dp/B01868JZDK/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1448035309&sr=8-8&keywords=party+hard

Working on a Level Editor

The team at Pinokl is hard at work on a Level Editor for Party Hard. Progress is being made, but no ETA yet.

We MAY or MAY NOT be working on a console version

We can neither confirm nor deny the possibility of bringing Party Hard to consoles.

Yes, that GIF shows exactly what you think it does. Aside from giant alien butts that shoot rainbows, the After Party update adds 7 new levels!

These include variations on existing parties, completely new game modes, and some really strange things. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure how the guys at Pinokl facilitate their creative process, but it's definitely working!

At some point in developing the update Igor showed me the GIF above and asked if that was too much. I gave it some thought and realized: it is never too much with Party Hard. So expect more weirdness!

Here's the trailer:

New parties
  • Robot party with UFOs!
  • A psychodelic party with giant duck boats, rainbows... and aliens
  • A zombie apocalypse, be-e-e-ecause every game is better with a zombie mode in it (c) Activision
  • The Vegas Casino party... on steroids. And SWAT teams. And a dozen of body guards
  • Why not party on a boat... WHILE IT'S SINKING?!
  • A party on a spaceship with aliens!
  • A really weird Halloween party, you'll know what I mean
The changelog of fixes (the main game)
  • Fixed common problems with gamepads
  • Fixed the full-screen issues that sometimes made the game switch to windowed mode
  • Solved rare saving issues
  • No more crashes during Twitch streams
  • Updated language menu
  • Bodyguard glitches tweaked
  • Fixed the dance floor grenade collider issue
  • Fixed shark attack glitches
  • Fixed a rare crash on the Halloween party level
Enjoy the AfterParty!

Edit: Just published a hotfix that should open all the levels for people who have beaten the game.

Andrew WK on the decks.

It’s the middle of your night and your neighbours won’t stop partying, so what do you do? Me, I turn up at their door with a bottle of whisky in hand and a traffic cone on my head, yelling “Wahey!” The chap in Party Hard [official site]? He murders them all, one by one, one way or another in slasher-style antics, while trying not to get caught.

I meant to post about the top-down, arcade-y stealth murder game when it came out last month, then forgot, then again, then forgot again, so now… have a post to, er, note the release of Mac and Linux versions ten days ago? Sure.
