Party Panic changes
It's been a wild ride. I'm beyond thrilled of how Party Panic has been received so far, and I'm excited to see what everyone thinks of all the new content. It's crazy to think that just over a year ago Party Panic first entered early access. At that time the game had 10 minigames, the gauntlet, and no online multiplayer, and now it's come so far, with so much more to do.. Let's take a look at what's been added in that year.. -Online Multiplayer (!!!!) -20 minigames were added (totalling 30 now!) -Trophy Island -50+ hats and costumes -Keyboard and mouse support -Progression/leveling system with loot-boxes -25+ Achievements -Post-game Winner highlights I'm honestly surprised I managed to get all that done as a solo dev, it was hard work, but it's beyond satisfying to finally see it all come together today as we launch out of Early Access. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYgfY5eDsxI
Moving forward
You might be wondering what will happen with Party Panic moving forward. I am absolutely still working on more content. Right now the plan is to take a short break from dev (I've been working on Party Panic 7 days a week for the past 18 months..) but in a few weeks I'll start working on new minigames to start. Let me know what you'd like to see added to Party Panic. Want more minigames? More Costumes? New game modes? Anything is possible! I'll most likely be devoting some time in the near future to start looking at what it would take to get Party Panic on the Switch, Xbox One, and PS4. Thanks for all the love you all gave to Party Panic while it was in Early Access. Without your support, Party Panic would not be what it is today!
