• Update 0.9.5 is out in the wild! - 12 June 2017

• Public Beta - 20 July 2016

  We've released a new public beta build. It's loaded with fixes, but so much has changed that it's likely we have a few more things to find and fix. Please report any issues you encounter if you try out the beta build! You can activate the beta branch in Soul Locus properties, under the BETAS tab. The beta is currently only for PC. OSX probably won't be updated until the build is verified to be stable and ready to go live. This build fixes endless mode issues and has proper spawning for the two new endless maps found in the Cloud Mesa area. Most of our story dialog is in, along with associated quests. Quest progress will be used to unlock abilities like Vortex. This may not be working as intended at the moment. In preparation for the upcoming permanent Evolve/Card Merge feature, we have removed Focus Cost from the guardian list. All Guardians cost 1 focus to play. This will ensure that e…

• New Achievements! - 23 May 2016

  While we work to wrap up the next build, we decided to release a large number of achievements. These ones are already working, and in many cases, they have already been counting up for a few patches. You might notice there are 25+ hidden achievements. The logic to trigger those is coming in our next patch, which will hopefully complete our achievement sets for Soul Locus! We also submitted our trading cards, emoticons and backgrounds for approval. Expect those to be releasing in the near future.

• Update 0.9.2 brings us the new area: Cloud Mesa! - 9 March 2016

  This update is a large one! The main highlights include a new area with 15 additional maps and 2 more endless levels. Along with that, we've added two new enemies. Play through the content and you'll be sure to notice their intimidating presence! In addition to this large content drop, we also fixed a number of issues reported by players. Most notably all the known bugs involving endless maps and save and continue. Numerous levels received balancing and some UI was improved. You can read the full patch notes on the Welcome Screen that shows when you start the game. As a small treat, we updated the art for the Ox to include Hacheep perched and searching for enemy goos.

• Patch 0.8.5: You're not the (mini) boss of me! - 10 October 2015

  We're getting closer to a complete game. We're focusing more and more on the longer game experience. As part of this, there are mini-bosses now, as well as intermissions for endless - a good chance to take breather, collect some loot, etc. As the notes mention, this does make endless a bit easier for now. We'll be rebalancing once we have a bit more data from the mini-bosses in regular maps, to bring endless back in line with where we think the challenge level should be. Hop in, kill some mini-bosses, and check out the new changes. Patch Notes Mini bosses have been added to many levels. - They spawn smaller goos as they take damage. - Levels have been rebalanced for this new challenge. - A few levels weren't adjusted since they are being saved for full bosses. Damage Numbers are displayed and colored by tower type! - If you don't like it, you can turn it off in the options menu during b…
