How to Playtest

To get the balance right, we're looking for feedback! If you own the game, you can check out the playtest build for the upcoming patch:

Right-click City of Beats in your library and click "Properties", then "Betas".
Select "playtest" from the dropdown. (if you want to switch back to the standard build, select "None")

Please note that progress while playing the playtest build is stored in a separate savegame file and won't use or override your existing progress. You will already have all weapons unlocked and the new Acid Linkgun equipped. Achievements are disabled.

We suggest only playing the playtest build if you've already finished at least one run in the base game, to avoid spoilers.

Have a great day, Kai
