Project Zero News

Hello! I started the current Playtest on 31st last month and I said it will end on 11th this month, but I have decided to make it longer by another 2 weeks.

The reason for it is that I'm close to releasing "Practice With Bots". I will post about it soon.

Playtest has been going super well in my opinion. Have been finding more and more stuff that just doesn't work and fixing them.

If you are interested on trying Project Zero now or later when Practice With Bots comes out, go request access or wishlist and follow!

There is more to come. Stay tuned.

Hi!

Couple weeks back I did a playtest which somewhat helped me on finding bugs, etc.

I have been mainly fixing those bugs, finding/fixing memory leaks & optimizing my network system.

I started working on new AK-47 animations and UMP-45.



My plan is to use this current networking system to get Project Zero out in Early Access and switch when the time is right. The reason why I'm going to switch is because the networking solution is old and not up to date.

Next milestone is Playtest 4, but I'll post about it soon.

There is a lot to come.

Thank you for reading this far. Have a great rest of your day!

Wishlist and follow Project Zero to know right away about new things!

I'll accept everyone as soon as I can.

There are "many" things that has been changed compared to previous playtest.

- New create room UI.
- New player model (which is not final) and it replaced all the old ones.
- Kill Feed UI changes.
- Few new footstep sounds.
- Recoil/spray overhaul.
- New Desert Eagle, AWP, Glock-18 models/animations.
- Some player HUD changes.
- Added console (work in-progress).
- Inventory Remake (not fully done).
- New sound system.
- Better grenade sync and more.

There will most likely be things that are not supposed to be public yet/things that do not work.

I will accept every request as soon as I can. Have a great rest of your week!

Hello!

This week I have been fixing bugs and working a bit more on the bot support. I'm currently doing as much as I can to make the next playtest playable.

Before when flag was taken or captured, it showed an notification in the kill feed. Now it looks like this




I also added an notification for Gun Game & FFA who is currently winning



The next playtest will be on 24th and will end 30th this month. This is just like any other playtest I have done to get feedback on things, test stuff out, etc.

If you are interested, wishlist Project Zero! Wishlisting the game supports me a lot and keeps me going.

Thanks for reading & have a good rest of your day!
