We know, we missed you too. And while you have been partying hard, we've been working. HARD! You're lucky we love you too much. Because not only we're not mad at cha for your laziness, but we are even upgrading the in-game Level Editor for you! Here's your detailed Upgrade Guide.
:partyknife:
NEW BACKGROUNDS
(Where this new stuff is: CONSTRUCTION / BACKGROUNDS) Dark Castle, Porn Studio, Skyscraper, Police Department. What do these levels have in common? Correct, Albert: they scroll. But as advanced as those maps may be... they are not true scrolling levels until you can edit them. And now you can—via the Workshop.
----------------
Dark Castle:
Deep in the Carpathians stands an old mysterious castle... When the sun dies over it, evil claims its reign inside. Vile creatures crawl out from under ancient tombstones to begin their blasphemous banquet. And it is you who holds this banquet!
-----------------
Porn Studio:
Someone's trying to get some sleep? Them fools can forget it! Because you are filming some adult junk and raving out loud at the same time right around the bend. Studio is a perfect playground for you to have fun with your toys...:partylips:
----------------
Skyscraper:
Throw a crazy party in a Die Hard setting and then slaughter every human / animal / alien you've put in there. If you are scared of heights, let your friends tackle the issue.
-------------------
Police Department:
Creating a prison to be locked in? Even Houdini couldn't have dreamt of such a luxury. Turning a police station into a bullfighting arena in not a pipe dream anymore.
:partypolice:
SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS
(Where this new stuff is: Surv. cameras: FURNITURE / EQUIPMENT; Surv. guards: PEOPLE / SPECIAL) Say you think Party Hard isn't hard enough. sounds a bit far-fetched Suit yourself and make it harder by placing survaillance cams all over the place. But, please, don't cry when security manhandles you.
:partymask:
DOORS, LOCKED WITH KEYS
(Where this new stuff is: Doors: CONSTRUCTION / STRUCTURE; Keys: TRAPS / ITEMS) Same here. Bring some logic to the table, make some doors actually locked (authentic experience) and swallow place the keys near an angry dog.
:partypills:
NEW WALLS, NEW TILE AND OTHER NEW STUFF
(Where this new stuff is: Walls: CONSTRUCTION / WALLS, Tile: CONSTRUCTION / FLOOR) Go old-school with chain-link fencing, honor Pink Floyd with a classic white brick wall, and create penitentiary vibe using a barbed wire barrier.
:partydisk:
BUG FIXES
Once upon a time there was a wicked bug. It caused the game to crash when the brave party killer plugged in his faithful controller. It has been fixed. End of the fairy tale.
We've also fixed a bunch of other minor issues too so game's gotten even better.
-----------------
Well, that's kinda it for the guide. We hope you'll have a lot of fun with the upgraded Workshop and with the game in general!
Happy partying right there!:water:

Community-driven character is now live!
Hi to all!
We'd like to introduce to you a new character in the current update.
We got a huge amount of different ideas about new character and it's always hard to pick the best option. We decided to create the character by Blue Hinter. In our opinion, he adds a new dimension to the game and opens up new possibilities for speedrunners.
Now you are free to play as this adrenaline-driven char.:)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
v.1.4.020.r
Change log:
- new character
- local co-op fixes
- local co-op on keyboard( 2 players)
- minor bug fixes and improvements
New character and improvements!
New playable character:
Hi, folks! We are planning to add a new free playable character to the game. But there is something special about him: you will decide who he is and what abilities he (or she) has!
We are constantly receiving ideas about new characters from you, so why won`t we give you a chance to fulfill your wishes? There is really an easy way to do this: just follow this discussion thread and write what character you want to see in the game next:
Also, we are working really hard on fixing issues and adding new stuff to the game, and today's list includes the following:
Mac\Linux DLC update
We have updated High Crimes DLC for those systems, so anyone who had troubles downloading it can now freely suffer on new levels.
Cop (player) has been arrested for carrying bodies
Yes, it's usually not a great idea to carry around dead bodies, it's not a "Swiss Army Man", you know. But when character abilities say he can carry bodies, we probably should let him do that. Fixed.
Telephone events on all DLC levels
DLC is tough as hell, we added some emergency numbers for the telephones in the High Crimes DLC to help some of you. Or to make things even worse... you never know.
Getting stuck in hiding places
It seems that we made hiding places so comfortable that Darius refused to go out. We`ve put a few snakes and spiders inside so now he will likely go out when you ask him to.
Items pick up priority
What would you choose: to find and pick up $100 or to go upstairs? While it`s an obvious decision for me and you, Darius thinks different. We talked a little bit and now he will prioritize to pick up items and then to use traps or doors.
Combo label positions
While we like mysteries, combo score is something we really want to see. We moved it to proper positions on levels with scroll.
Cop Zombie fix
After months and months of researches we finally found the zombie plague vaccine and decided to test it out on our policeman. And it seems to work perfectly. Cop cannot become a zombie from now on.
New explosion animations
We changed the chemical composition of our grenades so now they explode more epic.
Security doesn't cause a busted screen in local co-op
Did you know that inactivity causes your muscles to atrophy? Well, our security guards didn't know that, so we taught them a lesson. Now they are as deadly as they were before.
No 'Win' screen in local co-op when one of the players is dead
We will win together or will not win at all... Well, that's not the case from now onwards. Fixed.
Finishing casino level
With the great help of our dedicated players we found out what caused the never-ending issue on casino levels. It was a UFO. When they kidnapped people and were killed, counter didn`t change. We requested official commentary but all we got was "ayy lmao". Anyway, we fixed this issue.
Rebind keyboard controls
We are all well informed that magic is restricted outside Hogwarts, so whoever disabled an option to rebind a keyboard after an update should really be aware of punishment. We brought it back.
Do I need to remind you how much we appreciate your support and dedication to this game? I believe I do: thank you all! Now let`s see what character ideas you have!
New improvements and fixes
We are constantly working to improve and fix issues in Party Hard to deliver you the best experience we can. This day's fix list includes the following issues:
- After the co-op update something strange happened to our dog companion... After killing another vampire he had been gone to his astral world to never come back again. It appears that we accidentally created too complex astral world, and Hellhound was just lost. With the help of our developers we managed to bring him back.
- We added a small sign tweaks. Some of you complained that hide objects and signs looked exactly like escape doors, so we created a new one.
- There have been an issue when you would stuck in case a cop that was arresting you would suddenly (accidentally, of course, or of old age) die. While it could've been a big shock to Darius (he actually would be dumbfounded like this forever) we decided to fix this issue as well.
- Items on levels appear to stop displaying in black boxes/cases. It's usually a bad idea to keep such a valuable stuff in the open air, so we ordered a nice pack of new boxes and put them back in their places.
We are continuing to investigate issues and fix them. The next update will bring more advanced local co-op improvements, but untill then - have a nice Party! ;)
Day One Patch (High Crimes DLC)

Hi, everyone! Thanks for your support and for helping us make Party Hard better. Thanks to your feedback we were able to find and fix a few major and some minor bugs in this update. We are still working on local co-op, an update for it will come shortly as well. Here are some noticeable fixes:
* Fixed and added a few more behaviors to the final boss (High Crimes DLC)
* Cop shooting (High Crimes DLC) sometimes didn`t work properly, fixed
* Getting stuck in hiding objects (High Crimes DLC), fixed
* "Not flagging characters upon completing the level" bug, fixed
* Fixed objectives that wouldn't update properly

* A minor graphics improvements and optimizations (High Crimes DLC)
* Local co-op fixes (still needs some improvements)
