Dear survivors,

It was a great pleasure and honor to host the second playtest of Deadly Days: Roadtrip. There were several hotfixes in a very short time and several hundred completed feedback forms. Thank you!

As of this writing, 23,755,231 zombies have been killed and 4,951,330,675 damage has been done. If those aren't numbers to work with in the face of the zombie apocalypse. We are curious to see how these numbers will develop until Friday, November 8, 2024, when our playtest round #2 officially ends.




We will now be working diligently on the next iteration of the game for a few weeks and are delighted to be able to draw on your feedback.

Your ideas and suggestions, which you express on our Discord, will also flow into our ticket system.

[h2]When will we continue?
[/h2]
We don't want to give an exact date, but there will be a third playtest this year as planned.

Hello everyone,

we have just uploaded another small hotfix.

Important: If you have a graphics card with < 6GB VRAM, use the DirectX11 option when starting the game. Otherwise it'll crash due to the hungry Unreal Engine :D.

[h3]Changes[/h3]
Improved:

• Increased size of boss marker on mini map
  

Fixed:

• Airdrop reward screen could be soft-locked when upgrading inside existing inventory
  
• Some inventory edge case crashes
  
• Dumbell + robot arm sometimes didn't loose effect when unequipped in airdrop screen
  
• Lighter did upgrade despite not being upgradable
  

Thanks to everyone for the feedback so far :)
