🧩 Game Version: v1.2.20

With this update we wanted Outbreak to feel more intense, darker, and more brutal. 🧟‍♂️⚠️

The apocalypse should not feel clean or simple. It should feel chaotic, violent, and dangerous. ☣️🌫️

Because of this, we introduced new gore effects.

Now when you shoot zombies, blood effects appear when bullets hit them, making combat feel much more impactful and visceral. 🩸🔫💥

This change is part of a larger direction for the game where we want the world to feel:

🩸 darker ⚠️ more dangerous 🌑 more immersive 🧟 more intense

The apocalypse should feel like a world that truly collapsed.

🧟‍♂️🧠 IMPROVED ZOMBIE AI

Zombies are now smarter and more responsive thanks to improvements to their AI system. ⚙️🧠

They should now feel:

🧟 more active 🧟 more threatening 🧟 more present in the world

Encounters with zombies are now more dynamic and unpredictable. ⚠️

🔊🧟 NEW ZOMBIE SOUNDS

We have completely replaced the zombie sound effects. 🎧🔊

The new sounds are:

🧟 more realistic 🌑 more disturbing 🎧 more immersive

This helps the atmosphere feel much darker and more tense, especially when zombies are nearby but not yet visible. 🌫️👀

🐪🧟 DESERT ZOMBIES ADDED

While fixing other systems we also added a new type of zombie.

🐪 Desert Zombies

These infected appear in desert areas of the map and help make the world feel more varied and alive. 🌵☀️

You will now encounter different types of zombies depending on where you explore. 🧭

⚠️🛠️ MAJOR BUG FIX – SPAWN SYSTEM

We fixed a very important bug that was affecting the entire world. 🚨

Previously the spawn system was incorrectly positioned, which caused:

❌ zombies not spawning ❌ animals not spawning ❌ some areas feeling empty

This issue has now been completely fixed. ✅

Now the world feels far more alive and populated. 🧟🌍

🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️ MORE ZOMBIES ACROSS THE MAP

Since the spawn system is now working correctly, we also significantly increased the number of zombies across the entire map. 🧟🧟🧟

Exploring the world should now feel:

⚠️ more dangerous 🌑 more tense 🧟 more unpredictable

Survival now requires more planning and awareness.

🔫🔥 TWO NEW WEAPONS

To help players deal with the growing danger, we added:

🔫 2 NEW PLAYABLE WEAPONS

These expand the available arsenal and give players more options when fighting zombies. 💥🧟

More weapons are planned for future updates. ⚙️

🚐🔥 VEHICLES ARE FINALLY HERE

One of the most requested features has finally arrived.

🚐 FIRST DRIVABLE VEHICLE ADDED

The first vehicle introduced is a camping van. 🏕️🚐

Features:

🚐 Works in Single Player 🚐 Works in Multiplayer 🚐 Fully drivable around the map

Since this is the first vehicle system implemented, it may still contain small bugs or unexpected behavior. ⚠️

However, we believe it is now stable enough for players to start using it and testing it. 🧪

More vehicles will be added in future updates. 🚗🚙

🧱🌍 MAP BOUNDARIES ADDED

We added invisible boundaries in certain areas of the map. 🧱

This prevents players from:

❌ jumping outside the map ❌ falling into unintended areas

These boundaries only exist in specific locations where leaving the map was possible. 🗺️

📖🧭 STORY UPDATE – FIRST MISSION

One of the most important additions in this update is progress on the game's story.

Now when you create a new world, you will receive your first mission. 🎯

🎯 Your objective:

Travel to the Military Base 🪖 and discover what happened there. 📂

This is the beginning of the story system in Outbreak. 📖

More missions and chapters will continue to be added in future updates. 🚧

⚙️💻 PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS

We also made improvements to RAM memory usage. 🧠💻

This helps the game run more efficiently and smoothly. ⚙️

Optimization work will continue in future updates.

🚀🧟 DEVELOPMENT CONTINUES

This update represents a big step forward for the game.

🩸 More gore 🧟 Improved zombies 🚐 First vehicle 🔫 New weapons 📖 Story mission 🐪 Desert zombies ⚙️ Bug fixes and optimizations

And much more is coming soon. 🚀

Thank you for supporting the development of Outbreak. ❤️🧟‍♂️
