Major update

Content Update #4: New character, new boss and more!

Hello everyone! We’ve got a lot of important news to share with you.


First of all: the price of the game will increase from €12 to €14. That’s a €2 increase, which we feel is justified after almost a year in Early Access. This change will happen right after the current sale ends, so you still have time to get the game at a lower price!

Secondly: the new update is out, and here’s what it brings 🦇 :

  • A new character: the Vampire. Her power does not affect her movement, unlike the other characters in the game. When she activates it, she boosts her strength and magic stats for one turn and drains one health point from her opponent (if she lands on a monster). Her talent is pretty cool too: when she kills a monster, she has a small chance to spawn a bat, which will eliminate a random monster while stealing one health point from it.

  • A new boss in biome 3. It’s a giant sea serpent that can swallow you and spit you back out. Watch out for the bubbles! This boss replaces the one we previously had in biome 3. We hope you’ll like this new one a bit more.

  • Two new items at the shop. The pile of rocks, which creates a landslide under the hero’s feet. This landslide destroys all the tiles below, even bonus tiles! And throwing stars, which randomly eliminate between 1 and 4 monsters on the screen.

  • A new item in the fountain: the bird. When you use the flute to play a melody, if you’ve unlocked it, the flute breaks. The fountain bird allows you to repair it so you can play a new melody.

Finally, and most importantly: this update is the last one before the arrival of version 1.0. We still can’t give you a date (even though we know it ourselves), but you shouldn’t have to wait much longer before the final version of the game is released. We can’t wait for you to discover all the surprises it has in store!

Once again, thank you all so much for your support and feedback. It has helped us a lot throughout Early Access. We truly hope you’ll find version 1.0 worthy of your expectations 🌞

Game update20 Aug 2026Optimization Patch 🌞Hi everyone! This news will be short, but together with our Everade (freelance programmer) and our publisher Goblinz's QA team, we've been working on a new patch to improve the game's performance. This should especially help people with older or lower-end PCs (with low VRAM and/or 8 GB of RAM, for example). I'm back from vacation and I've started working on controller support, but it's pretty c…In-game event24 Jul 2026You can now SAVE MID-RUNHi everyone! A lot of you have been asking for this, and it's finally here: you can now save & quit at any point during a run , then come back and resume your run. We hope this makes playing Sol Cesto much more comfortable, especially if you don't always have time to finish a run in one sitting. This feature was honestly quite a challenge to implement, and even more of a challenge to debug. Hug…Game update8 Jul 2026Corrective patch no. 3 (a big one)A New Hotfix, Finally! This is the biggest hotfix we've released for Sol Cesto so far . It fixes a huge number of bugs and required the help of a second programmer, Everade , who previously worked on Zombiehood . Thanks to Everade and our publisher Goblinz's Quality Assurance team, we were able to move much faster and solve some particularly tricky engine-related issues, including the Alt+Tab w…
