Gameplay Overview Series Part 4 - Discovering Stage Creator

First off, we want to thank everyone again for supporting HUMANITY. Since our launch last week, users have shared over 1,000 levels using the game's Stage Creator. We're absolutely bowled over and appreciate all the amazing creativity we're seeing in User Stages.

Even if you're not interested in making your own stages (we get it), we encourage you to hop into User Stages and check out the playlists of user-generated content that we've curated. There are some jaw-droopingly cool levels in there. Some real tough ones, too! We plan to refresh these playlists regularly in addition to the list of new arrivals so there is always something to discover.

Speaking of making stages, we released a video today covering the basics of Stage Creator. In this tutorial, you'll see just how easy it is to craft a stage using the robust and intuitive tools available to you in-game. Hopefully it will inspire a few of you to hop in and make a stage or two yourself! It is a lot easier than you think.

We have also started the Morning Walk, a daily stream of user-made levels. Stop by twitch.tv/EnhanceExperience every day at 9 am Pacific to watch our Shiba Inu streamer play while Enhance staff commentates. Hopefully you'll stop by or even submit one of your own creations for us to play. That's it for today but as always please let us know your feedback on the game. We are working on a patch currently that addresses a few of the issues we've heard about so far and will let you know when that hits.

Gameplay Overview Series Part 3 - An Endless Library Of User Stages

Beyond the 90-stage Story Mode, a big part of the HUMANITY experience is the user-generated content found in User Stages. Even if you're not the type of player excited by building your own levels, this is an endless library of user-built stages just begging to be explored.

Now—you may want to spend some time in the Story Mode first to learn the game's mechanics. Most of these stages assume you know the basics; some go even further than that!

We made this video to walk you through exactly what User Stages offers and how you can get the most out of it. It's a place where you'll find handpicked playlists of levels and can easily find the challenge you're in the mood for. Playing other people's stages gives you player points that level you up and unlock new avatar items. Stages are cross-platform and can be shared via 10-digit Stage ID.

We're astonished by the community's creativity even a day or two in. Now—get out there and enjoy some User Stages!

HUMANITY Is Available Now!

Are we here? Is this the real life? We're at launch day. *Checks calendar* Yep, here we are. Thanks to everyone who is here reading this or has shown interest in HUMANITY since our announcement back in February that it was coming to Steam. Thanks to everyone who has wish listed, told a friend, streamed it, talked about the game, joined us on Discord, etc. We appreciate you all! Yes, even you, person who just heard about the game today and gave it a blind buy. We appreciate you.

Aside from the Story Mode, we hope that even if you're not into making your own Stages (totally understandable), you'll be into trying out the stages we're curating in User Stages. This is the first day the game's available, but we certainly hope that it's also the beginning of a journey that we take together to building a community of players making and sharing amazing levels. The possibilities unlocked by the Stage Creator are massive—we saw but a quick sampling of that during our demo back in February—and can't wait to see what the community achieves now that the game's out.

Speaking of the game being out, we've got this launch trailer—a continuation/conclusion to the Shiba's antics from our release date trailer. We've embedded it below so you can watch it but in case you missed the release date trailer—here's a link to that too.

Gameplay Overview Series Part 2 - Mysteries Found In Story Mode

Join us as we explore the mysteries and thought-provoking questions brought forth by the Story Mode in Humanity, an action-puzzle game from Enhance and tha ltd. You control a glowing Shiba Inu, placing commands on the ground for a giant marching horde of people to follow. Make them turn, jump, float through the air, swim, climb, etc., all to reach the goal (or goals) in each stage. A narrative thread ties the 90+ stages of Story Mode together.
