For the past six months our artist Mash has been painstakingly recreating every single tile in Project Zomboid at twice the resolution. It looks utterly lovely, and is now playable in our IWBUMS public beta as a part of the release of Build 34.11. If you’d like to check it out and play it yourself, then the details arehere. Pictures speak louder than words, so… Old vs New in a kitchen!

Old vs New in a convenience store!

Old vs New in the Mall!

For more comparison screenshots please visit this thread on our forums, and gaze upon the fruits of the 2x revolution. There still may be rough edges to smooth in there, in which case you’ll find our bug tracker here. Many thanks to everyone who’s been helping out with the in-game grabs! 34.11 was released at the end of last week, and also contains EasyP’s terrific lighting improvements (the mall is now way slicker to survive in) and RJ’s current iteration of the new food system that we need wider feedback on for balance and bug-chasing on. (If you find yourself getting hungrier than you think right, please let us know – it’s very much a work in progress still and we need feedback from each and every play-style going.) Plenty more exciting stuff still to be fed into the workings of Build 34 too!

ATTN COMMUNITY ARTISTS

The valiant team behind the popular Hydrocraft community modare pulling out all the stops to bring their creation in-line with the development of the main game, and what with ‘2x’ appearing they need as many hands on the art-pump as they can muster. If you have artistic fingers and enjoy their mod then please enquire within, and ask for Hydromancerx. Thank you! 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 CBOIT would also like to thank all those who donated screenshots to the Great 2X Screenshot Comparison Competition for this Mondoid. Cheerio!

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
