Soup is back. For real this time.

Hey everyone, Yes, we're still here. Yes, it's been years. You were right to call the project dead—it was. Here's what happened: we rebuilt the entire game from scratch. New engine, new netcode, new everything.

Yes, we're still here. Yes, it's been years. You were right to call the project dead—it was.

Here's what happened: we rebuilt the entire game from scratch. New engine, new netcode, new everything. The old codebase couldn't do what we needed for proper competitive multiplayer, so we started over.

What's different now:

The server is live. Right now. If no other players are around, bots will fill the match so you're not staring at an empty lobby.

It's rough—placeholder art, missing features, probably bugs we haven't found yet. But it works, and we want your feedback on what's there.

How to play:

Go to Soup in your Steam library → Properties → Betas → enter the code [c]PRIMORDIALSOUP[/c] and the new build will download.

What happens next:

Weekly updates. Every week we push changes, post what we changed. If you tell us something's broken or feels wrong, we fix it. If you have ideas for mechanics, I'll genuinely consider them—can't promise every suggestion makes it in, but I read everything and take proposals seriously.
