Hi everyone,

We have released another patch and emergency fix for Dark Light: Survivor.

First, we want to give a special thanks to @Селин-Всталин and @👁 for reporting the issue with the Random Lottery Chest. This issue was introduced after the last major update, where the chest could take payment but fail to give a random weapon.

Thanks to the players who reported it clearly, we were able to locate and fix the issue within 24 hours. The Random Lottery Chest should now work correctly again.

This update also adds more content to the new Map Modifier system and fixes several other issues, including a rare game-breaking bug that could cause players to fall beneath the terrain in the Forest map.

Thank you again for all your support and feedback in the community. Your reports help us find and fix problems much faster.
