Working Hard Devblog: Playable character teaser, story finished
What's up, community!
Welcome back to Working Hard devblog. Sorry for keeping an eerie silence for a while: it have been quite a busy and pretty vacationless summer for us so far. But we're back with the most important news we have to share with you. ----
:AnimalDJ: We have finished composing and writing the story. Dialogues are now being voiced-over by professional actors as we localize them and polish the cutscenes. In Party Hard 2's story, the masked knife-wielding protagonist seeks revenge (we hope ke knows what for) against a vicious corporation he used to work for. In the process, a shocking truth is revealed to him.
----
:partymask: We are excited to reveal that the sequel will have multiple playable characters just like the original Party Hard. In addition to the main character–Party Hard Killer–we have designed 3 other unique heroes for you to ruin parties as. Fans who loved sneaking about in the role of Ninja in the first game will have a surprise coming their way: a brand new stealth-based character, an extraterrestrial phenomenon Kao Tech:
----
:partydisk: Aside from creating tons of content, we are also working hard on optimizing the game for it to run nice and easy on less powerful machines. Talk about getting ahead of performance complaints.
------
Ok, guys, that about sums it up for now. If you have any suggestions or questions, feel free to contact us at all times. And now, let the development process continue!

Working Hard Devblog: Introducing... bottles!
Hello, partygoers!
Welcome back to Working Hard! In the first edition of our brand new Party Hard 2 devblog we told you a little bit about the Motel level and its aspects. This time the spotlight goes to sequel's newest feature: bottle tricks!
:water:First and foremost, at any party bottles serve for one thang and one thang only: containing good (not always) booze. Need to distract someone? A flask of a good one should help:
:water:When we were little, we used to toss bottles at people for fun. Now we have grown up, and, with a slight shade of shame, wish to share this remarkable technique with you, guys. Thank you childhood for teaching us ways of classic stealth:
:water:Our folks told us not to play with fire. But they bever mentioned playing with fire and booze:
Well, enough disorderly conduct for today, goers. See you in the next Working Hard!

Welcome to Working Hard: Party Hard 2 devblog! Here we will be telling you about features that we add to the game while it is under development. We start with the introduction of the Motel level:
Motel will be the first stage in the story mode to feature vast outdoor areas. Prepare for tougher stealth challenge because you will have a lot of eyes on you:
Besides good ol' party stopping, you will be pushing pianos on unsuspecting passers-by, hide from (or confront) biker goons and play around with f(t)ire:
What do fires and vehicles have in common? We will allow you to drive a motorcycle to find out:
Expect fun side objectives and a few secrets to unvail. See you in the next Working Hard, fawkes!

Hello, Party people! Alex here with the progress report on Party Hard 2.
First off, I think we got it. We finally have the design of Party Hard 2. It was a long time coming—and previous alpha builds didn't really hit home with variety and emergent gameplay features you all loved from the original Party Hard.
Check out the trailer for Alpha 4:

PAX Experiments Fine folks from Pinokl have been traveling to PAX expos with us, tweaking builds alongside the feedback from alphas. This has been incremental in figuring out what works and what doesn't. The latest Alpha 4 build is a remake of the Vegas level from Party Hard. It is smaller, but has loads of procedural features.
Featuring chickens, aliens, gas canisters you can fill up and light up with a trail, and much more—Alpha 4 demos the gameplay feel that's coming to the final game.
There was this one specific player at PAXEast last month. At expos, many players like to stack bodies for some reason. They'd carefully kill off NPCs and stack their bodies behind dumpsters. So, this player stacks up a whole bunch of bodies behind the dumpsters. Then he takes a gas canister, fills it up, sprays it all over the bodies. And lights it on fire ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh, you can also party on a spaceship.
For now we're doing pre-sales on http://PartyHard.game, so, if you want to check those alphas out, head on over.
Suggest Your Partygoer!
Hello, guys!
We are announcing the start of the community suggestion topic devoted to Party Hard 2 NPCs. Character creation process is well under way and it is open for ideas. That means that you can share your partygoer suggestions with us!
Party is an event where everyone is free to go magpiecrap crazy, whether in terms of acting weird as living hell (we call those Loons) or kicking unsuspecting butts all over the dance floor (being Goons, that is). Here are some examples of our "loons & goons' finest":
What your loon or goon will look like? How will they behave? What will people call them? What dance will they dance, for Christ's sake? :partytongue: Suggest your NPC in the comments below or in this topic:

Best concepts will be officially stolen for development purposes:partydisk:
