Full Description:

What’s New in v1.2:

Gameplay & Balance

• Special Zombies now have higher max HP early-game, making them a real threat from the start.
• Goliath’s HP has been increased for longer, more intense encounters -> feel the tension!
• Enemy XP gain slightly reduced for smoother progression without overpowering early runs.

Visual & Feedback Improvements

• Blood splatter now has more realistic force and “drip” momentum for melee attacks.
• Explosion effects improved for better visual clarity.
• General zombie graphics enhanced for more immersive combat.

UI & Quality-of-Life Fixes

• Corrected controller navigation in Upgrade and Loadout menus.
• Added background image to pre-game menu.
• Slightly increased shotgun damage.
• Roll/evade distance increased for smoother dodging.
• Active skill use now triggers subtle controller vibration feedback.
• Controller image updated to match latest changes.
• Fixed third active skill UX issue – now correctly maps to R3.

Gameplay Decisions

• When moving to a new map in the same run: all player build resets except gold, which now persists at 50%.
• Skills and synergy progressions are maintained during runs, making your strategic choices matter more.
