Yes, that GIF shows exactly what you think it does. Aside from giant alien butts that shoot rainbows, the After Party update adds 7 new levels!
These include variations on existing parties, completely new game modes, and some really strange things. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure how the guys at Pinokl facilitate their creative process, but it's definitely working!
At some point in developing the update Igor showed me the GIF above and asked if that was too much. I gave it some thought and realized: it is never too much with Party Hard. So expect more weirdness!
Here's the trailer:

Did anyone order a Sharknado? Patch 1 notes
- Added Sharknado to the Miami Party as a Twitch event
- Fixed achievement bugs
- Fixed ninja's stealth ability not working properly sometimes
- New Twitch events
- Upgraded AI
- Rebalanced Halloween and Vegas levels
- Watched Angry Joe play Party Hard for 9 hours straight, including over 2 hours on the Miami Party
- Purposely not fixing the difficulty spike in the Miami party
- Added time scoring when you complete levels
- Fixed some issues with score multipliers
- Showed off Party Hard on the Twitch stage at PAX Prime
- Thought it would be a great idea to have fake knives that collapse at PAX. Quickly realized it's a bad idea to run around with realistic-looking knives stabbing people (they also leave bruises)
- Thought it'd be a good idea to have a bubble machine at PAX Prime, realized it's a bad idea when I accidentally sprayed a 2 feet high layer of bubbles all over PAX 10, 505 games, and Adult Swim's booths. But hey, it was clean!
- Thought it'd be a good idea to have a fog machine in our booth. Tested it. Who knew fog machines trigger smoke alarms? (apparently everyone but me!)
- Fixed a rare issue when the game would launch right into a black screen. It had everything to do with corrupt save files
- The cop player character can now use shortcuts
- Party Hard is our most fun game launch
- Major content update coming very soon!
State Of The Party
Hi, everyone!
We are getting a ton of questions about updates, DLC, etc. I want to spend some time answering those questions.
Upcoming updates
Alongside fixes, we will have significant content updates in the form of brand new events. Expect silliness like the UFO party on the GIF above, and other surprises.
ETA for first content update is Monday.
Mac & Linux
Working on these, ETA: soon.
DLC? Screw DLC!
No, we are not going to do paid DLC right now. I don't like it when you go to a Steam Store page and there are tons of these little upgrades you can do, it's confusing. If you want to give us more money, we might do a special Deluxe version or something like that, but we won't charge you for DLCs.
You can help us by telling your friends about Party Hard instead.
PAX Prime
We are showcasing Party Hard at PAX Prime this weekend, and the first day reception is phenomenal. The game has great spectator sport appeal, with the crowd vouching for it. If you're at PAX and think of buying it, stop by our booth on the 6th floor!
Party Hard Is Out Now, Launch Trailer Live!

Happy Partying! :) We are all on standby to make quick updates/fixes and implement your feedback. Expects tons of updates!
Launch Party, price revealed
I hope everyone is as excited as we are about tomorrow's launch.
Over the weekend plenty of live streamers helped us iron out the Twitch integration. It's hilarious to see players try to stab the last two people, and the chat calling in a car with 12 more. :D
I have two important news to share today:
1. Launch Party
On Thursday, August 27 at 9:00 p.m. at Capitol Cider we are having the Party Hard Launch Party. If you're around for PAX, definitely swing by!
