Hey!
We're really excited to announce that the PUBLIC PLAYTEST FOR SOULCHAIN IS OUT NOW! To join, click the button in the game's store page!
What does the Playtest include?
If you didn't know, Soulchain is a precision-platformer with metroidvania-like progression that uses a physics-based grappling hook as its core mechanic. During the playtest, you'll get to try out this grappling hook and see for yourself how it combines precision with physical accuracy.
Another key feature of Soulchain is its structure. It is a metroidvania, yeah, but it also doesn't have items. Instead, progression is locked by knowledge and skill with the movement system. You'll often ignore passages that seem unreachable, only to come back later and realize that you could always have reached them with the right use of the grapple.
You'll get to experience that during the playtest. Your first playthrough will probably take 15-20 minutes to get to the ending, but come back after that and it'll take you about 1 hour to completely explore the map.
Giving Feedback
We've validated the game in a good couple of physical events and we're pretty happy with how it is, but remember that this is a playtest! If you'd like to give feedback, share speedrun records, or just talk about the game, please consider joining our Discord. Find the link below!
And that's it! Hope you'll enjoy Soulchain just as much as we're enjoying making it.
See you in the Afterlife!
