Zumbi Blocks 2 Open Alpha changes
Zumbi Blocks - version 2.1.3.0
For this first update of 2026 i'm bringing some important new game features. First of them is unlockable skins. In addition to the skins, you can now freely customize the color scheme of the character instead of being limited to a small set of predefined color schemes. The second feature is perks: special and unique buffs you can use to make your life easier. The third is game modes and difficulties. For now all difficulty modes are available from the start, and skins / perks are unlocked by just beating bosses or buying loadout boxes. The plan for the future is tthat you will have to unlock game modes and difficulties by beating the game on previous difficulties. Of course i'll have to add a way to beat the game after you reach the last wave. (Calamity mode will have all 5 bosses and will only exist in the paid version) Also, by doing specific challenges, like beating the game for the first time, or beating a boss on hard mode would unlock unique skins, perks, or weapons.
The lobby menu has been completely revamped to accomodate this new features, in addition to other improvements that can be checked on the full change log below.
