[b]Happy New Year![/b] We hope you all had fun celebrating the end of 2024 and we wish you all the best for 2025! This year, we have big plans for Park Studio, and it's time to reveal it all! [b][u]Welcome to Beta 1.0[/u][/b] The biggest thing coming in 2025 is the very first Beta release of the game, this massive update will extend Park Studio's feature set drastically and provide a first taste of the real [b]ultimate[/b] Theme Park building and simulation game! Beta 1.0 will be worked on [b]throughout 2025[/b] and will hopefully release by [b]December this year[/b] or later in Early 2026. As we revealed before, there will be Experimental releases during the development of the Beta, but the plans have changed: - Instead of releasing the experimental builds on a separate branch, we will release the builds on the current main branch, overriding the current Alpha. - Saving will still be enabled, even if you are not a Patreon supporter. - The builds will only be released once enough content has been added and properly tested, meaning there might be only one release every quarter. - Patreon supporters will get access to every functional builds, these builds are untested and may not add anything major however. We will release the first Experimental build once all the currently available features in Alpha 0.2 are implemented in the Beta. [u]Regarding the price increase:[/u] Park Studio's price will be increased to USD 19.99$ starting with the first Experimental Beta release. This is necessary to fund the future of the project and we hope you understand our decision, if you have already purchased Park Studio, this price increase won't affect you. The price will be increased further in the future as Park Studio becomes more feature rich, we currently don't have a number to give as the price will depend on many variables that we cannot control, we will share the necessary information in due time.
