Small Dev Blog


Hello everyone! Today I want to share with you the latest changes and new features. All of this is already available in the test branch, but I don’t recommend running it on your saves yet — there’s still a lot of work in progress, and something might go wrong and break your main game.

[h2]New Mechanics[/h2]
  • Added a Researcher machine: it studies parts and gives out a blueprint of that part. After studying it, you’ll be able to craft it, but you’ll lose the original part.
  • Added a card re-roll mechanic: if the cards don’t suit you, you can re-roll them until your attempts run out.
  • Introduced a bonus re-roll card: its rarity determines how many extra re-rolls you get.


[h2]Blueprint Changes[/h2]
  • Price increased (from 250 to 450).
  • Chance of appearance reduced to 40% — they will be sold less frequently.
  • Added new blueprints: now you can study all existing parts in the game.


[h2]Balance & Improvements[/h2]
  • Added night brightness adjustment — now everyone can tweak it to their liking.
  • Increased global brightness (including during rain).
  • Slightly strengthened shadows to balance the brightness increase.
  • Canceling cards now gives not a fixed 100 XP, but 25% of the maximum XP required to reach the next level.


[h2]Fixes[/h2]
  • Fixed a bug where Mr. Daryl’s name in dialogues was displayed incorrectly.


[h2]Upcoming Events[/h2]
  • Preparation of locations for the Winter Event is already in full swing.
  • Fixing old terrain bugs.
  • Started preparing for Halloween this year. From now on, Halloween will launch every October.




[h2]Feedback[/h2]
Thanks to everyone who leaves reviews — both positive and negative. I see all your comments and try to fix and implement them into the game. I don’t ignore feedback, I just sort it by importance.

I also wanted to make the dialogue text smaller for easier reading, but I need more time to do this carefully — I’m afraid to break something before the update, and this is very important.

[h2]When to Expect[/h2]
All changes are already uploaded to the test branch, and you can try them out.
Join our Discord channel if you want to know how to access the test branch.
Welcome to all new players! :)
I’m waiting for your feedback!

Festival Zombie vs Vampire

🧟 Rise of Gun Joins Its First Themed Festival!


Hello everyone!
This is the first themed festival that Rise of Gun is taking part in!
The festival features a wide selection of zombie and vampire-themed games — and all participants have prepared great discounts. I’ve joined too, and for a limited time Rise of Gun is 35% off!

[h2]🛠️ What to Expect in Rise of Gun:[/h2]
Rise of Gun isn’t about action, shooting, or killing — it’s not that kind of game.
But you’ll definitely feel the atmosphere of the apocalypse in a small town where you live and do everything you can to survive:

  • Craft your own weapons
  • Upgrade your shop
  • Help the townspeople


Thank you for supporting the game!
Enjoy the game and have a great festival! 🧡
