Hello Zomboiders of Kentucky and environs! This week’s primary development will be the IWBUMS public beta release of a build that’s chock full of engine improvements and the improved memory-saving light system. It will also include the current iteration of our revamped food system that we feel needs more feedback than its current separate public branch provides, despite its excellent brigade of dedicated culinary community explorers who’ve been so helpful during its teething tests. This IWBUMS beta is currently being held in a holding pattern as we’re in the process of upgrading our forums to their new form and, most necessarily, installing Connall’s new bug tracker. Everything is now live, but we really want to make sure everything is ticking over nicely before introducing a new build with a pile of new bugs to report. If we release mid/end of the week we can also get some more tweaks and fixes in from Turbo and EasyPickins in there too, so we’ve decided to hold it back rather than throw it out there just because it’s a Monday. Meanwhile, Turbo’s WordZed 2.0 utility is approaching completion (though he may well have time quickly fix up the new in-house hifi systems with the TV/Radio system before release), while the WIP build of Creative Mode has seen a lot of updates to cater for the aforementioned Secret Mission – the content of which will soon become clear. Finally for today, after garnering far more attention than was perhaps anticipated last week… the revamped food system’s sliced ham icon looks far less like a penis.

This week’s featured image by DonnyD. The Block of Italicised Text would like to point earnestly in the general direction of the PZ Wiki should you feel like editing or amending something, and the PZ Mailing List that can send blogs like this and patch notes direct to your mailbox. We also live on Twitter here! The BOIT would also like to indicate that nasKo and Undust4able are looking for feedback on their new PZ Subrebbit theme, and wanted to nudge your attention there too. Laters!

Project Zomboid is an open-ended zombie-infested sandbox. It asks one simple question – how will you die?

In the towns of Muldraugh and West Point, survivors must loot houses, build defences and do their utmost to delay their inevitable death day by day. No help is coming – their continued survival relies on their own cunning, luck and ability to evade a relentless horde.

Current Features

Hardcore Sandbox Zombie Survival Game with a focus on realistic survival.
Online multiplayer survival with persistent player run servers.
Local 4 player split-screen co-op
Hundreds of zombies with swarm mechanics and in-depth visual and hearing systems.
Full line of sight system and real-time lighting, sound and visibility mechanics. Hide in the shadows, keep quiet and keep the lights off at night, or at least hang sheets over the windows.
Vast and growing map (loosely based on a real world location) for you to explore, loot and set up your fortress. Check out Blindcoder’s map project: http://pzmap.crash-override.net/
Use tools and items to craft weapons, barricade and cook. You can even build zombie proof forts by chopping trees, sawing wood and scavenging supplies.
Deal with depression, boredom, hunger, thirst and illness while trying to survive.
Day turns to night. The electricity falters. Hordes migrate. Winter draws in. Nature gradually starts to take over.
Farming, trapping, fishing, carpentry, cooking, trapping, character customization, skills and perks that develop based on what you do in-game.
Proper zombies that don’t run. (Unless you tell them to in the sandbox menu).
A ton of amazing atmospheric music tracks by the prodigy that is Zach Beever.
Imaginative Challenge scenarios and instant action ‘Last Stand’ mode, on top of regular Sandbox and Survival
Full, open and powerful Lua modding support.
Xbox Controller Gamepad support on Windows. [Others pads can be set up manually. Gamepad support not currently available on Mac]

We’re a small team at the moment, but we’re also committed to providing the following:
Planned Features:
The return of our PZ Stories mode that also serves as first ever tutorial actively trying to kill you at every turn. Kate and Baldspot return!
In-depth and varied NPC encounters driven in a persistent world, powered by a metagame system that turns each play-through into your very own zombie survival movie with emergent narrative gameplay.
Constant expansion of the countryside and cities around Muldraugh and West Point
Full wilderness survival systems, animals and hunting for food.
More items, crafting recipes, weapons and gameplay systems.
Steam Workshop and Achievements support
