  Light Soul Rework & Gameplay Improvement

  Hello Souls!We’re continuing to improve Soul Maze based on your playtest feedback. This update brings several changes to make the experience smoother, more balanced, and more immersive.Light Soul right-click ability reworkThe Light Soul’s right-click ability has been completely reworked based on playtester feedback.Previously, this ability would make your character stand still and project a large beam of light into the sky, making you visible through walls to other Light Souls and easier to locate for the strategist. However, this ability was rarely used. Players usually stayed together, making it unnecessary.During the final escape phase, however, players can get separated after being hit by a Dark Soul, making it difficult to regroup without the strategist.To address this, the ability has been redesigned into a mobile coordination tool.While holding right-click, you carry your lantern and can move while using it, allowing you to actively locate and communicate with your teammates. While active:You can run and jump, but not dash or climbYou can see other Light Souls through walls (highlighted)You can communicate with them from a distance (radio) This change makes it easier to regroup and improves coordination, especially during the final escape.

  The Labyrinth Grows Darker

  Hello Souls! We've been working on improving the visual atmosphere of our game, and this update makes the labyrinth darker, deeper and more immersive.Light sources now stand out much more in the darkness. Glowing elements such as torches and lanterns pierce through the shadows, creating stronger contrasts and reinforcing the mysterious feeling while exploring the maze.A more organic labyrinth We also wanted the labyrinth to feel less linear and more natural.To achieve this, we added more environmental details throughout the corridors:scattered rocks and stone formationsroots emerging from the ground and wallsvarious elements to break up long straight corridorsThese additions help the labyrinth feel less artificial and more alive.New environmental details We’ve also added several atmospheric details to bring more life to the labyrinth. New environmental decals have been introduced, including glowing cracks spreading across walls and the ground. Some of them emit red or blue light, hinting at the strange energy flowing through the maze. In several areas, we’ve added various visual effects to make the labyrinth feel more alive. This includes falling leaves carried by the wind, subtle floating dust particles, glowing effects on the bonus/malus statues, and tiny luminous butterflies drifting through the corridors.These subtle VFX add movement and depth to the environment, enhancing the labyrinth’s mysterious and immersive character.We will continue improving the world and atmosphere of Soul Maze as development progresses.See you in the mazeThe Soul Maze Team ✨Curious to explore the labyrinth yourself? Add Soul Maze to your wishlist and follow the journey!
