We can’t thank you enough for staying with us throughout this very shaping Early Access development. Your feedback has been invaluable from bug reports to balance suggestions, every comment helped shape the game into what it is today. You've explored our dungeons, faced our bosses, and pushed the game to its limits. We couldn't have done it without you.

Version 1.0 will be released with improvements, new content, and all the polish your feedback made possible. We can't wait for you to see it.


Thank you for believing in Sol Cesto. See you on April 10.

Sol Cesto remains as one of the weirdest games I discovered during 2025 (but also very cool), and it's about to hit the big 1.0 release.

[p]Hello everyone! We’ve got a lot of important news to share with you.[/p][p]
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![/p][p][/p][p]Secondly: the new update is out, and here’s what it brings 🦇 :[/p]

• [p]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.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]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.[/p][p][/p][carousel][/carousel]
• [p]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.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]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.[/p][p][/p]

[p]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![/p][p][/p][p]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 🌞[/p][p]

[p]Hello everyone![/p][p][/p][p]We’ve got a brand-new update for you, and we hope you’ll like it. As we mentioned a few weeks ago, we’ve been focusing on improving existing content, but that doesn’t stop us from adding a bit of new content along the way. In this update you’ll find:[/p]

• [p]A new character: the Huntress. We love this character, and I strongly recommend unlocking her talent, it’s a lot of fun. The Huntress comes from the game Pyrene, which had also given a little nod to Sol Cesto.[/p]
• [p]And for the occasion, there’s a new Sol Cesto x Pyrene bundle. We really enjoyed Pyrene with Chario, and we hope you’ll like it too if you pick up the bundle.[/p]

[p][/p]

• [p]A new boss!!! It was a real challenge to add, but we’re happy with the result! Antoine composed a brand-new track especially for this boss.[/p]
• [p]Two new items at the shop: the slingshot, which lets you make a monster harmless for one turn and acts as a low-cost weapon; and the toothpaste, which… well, you’ll find out soon enough 👀[/p]
• [p]A new fountain item that brings a certain sharp blade back into the spotlight. It should really help if you’re struggling to finish a run.[/p]
• [p]And a special effect when you completely clear a combat grid. It’s up to you to discover it![/p]
• [p]Lots of small balance tweaks here and there, and plenty of bug fixes.[/p]

[p][/p][p]We hope you’ll enjoy all this. Chariospirale and I are already working on the next update, which should add a new boss and a new character by the end of January. So we’ll see you again very soon 🌞
[/p][p]Thank you all for your feedback and your patience, and see you soon![/p][p][/p][p]Géraud, Chariospirale, and Antoine.[/p][p]

[p]Hello everyone![/p][p][/p][p]Here’s a post to give you some news about Sol Cesto, both regarding the next update and the game in general. The next update is coming at the end of November. It will feature a new character with a really fun gameplay mechanic, especially when it comes to her talent. This character comes from a game we really like, even though we kept the reference pretty subtle. Let’s see if you can guess who it is 🏹[/p][p][/p][p]There will also be two new items in this update. I think the slingshot is pretty easy to understand, but the other one…? We also added a new item in the fountain, related to that damn goblin who keeps popping his head out from the edges of the screen. And finally, something you’ve been asking for a lot: completely clearing a board will now grant you a funny little reward. We hope you’ll enjoy all that! Oh, and we’re also adding a boss![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]As for the future of the game, we’ve planned two more updates (after the one at the end of November). The first should be out around the end of January, with roughly the same amount of content as the upcoming one. And the last one, much bigger, will mark version 1.0, and it will be released… later! We’re keeping that date secret for now.[/p][p][/p][p]We’ve also decided not to make a fifth biome as originally planned. Chario and I feel that the runs are already long enough, and we’d rather spend our time improving what’s already there. For example, by adding bosses, new characters, and a special, meaningful ending for the game. Believe us, removing the fifth biome isn’t just cutting content for the sake of it, it’s going to make the game more fun to play![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]That’s about it for now. See you at the end of the month for the next update 🌞[/p][p][/p][p]Géraud, Chariospirale, and Antoine[/p][p][/p]
