does anyone know how to get the sunglasse?
um rework nas armas seria ótimo, os tiros não pareciam ter impacto e algumas animações parecem ser meio travadas
I'm still waiting for Android version uses mobile control,cuz I can't do anything with pc control in my phone
the game's really fun, especially when you play with friends. I have a few problems with the sound and the menu, especially since you can't raise the voice chat's volume. When I'm making a server and I set player infection on, sometimes my player just dies out of nowhere. If its the part of the infeciton part, I get it, but at least make the player know about it that they are infected in some way
Otherwise the game is really good, and I would love to see more developement
bruh mobile doesn't have mobile control, it needs k&m ...
android version uses pc controls,
I cant install the android version

tbh, banger game with some growing pains, would be nice to see more responsiveness with the keypads, a server list, and more of a point to use the spec ops guy but its good so far. would love to see more development.
plz add server list

我想他有一天会更新4楼,这个游戏太好玩了,但是我希望可以加户外地图
Definitely a bit of a nightmare to understand for beginners trying to play with friends, Buttt... With enough dedication and radmin and hamachi fiddling it's definitely a fun little game where you and your friends will be constantly jumped by juiced up zombies ! :]
i tried the android vertion, it works but only in a tablet with a keyboard and a mouse, i think is good but it doesn´t work on cellphones, despite of that, is a good game and i love it!
i love it, i was really close about a heart attack haha, is really good
it's good
Add Joystick
When can I release the mobile version?😭😭😭
Hi, tried playing multiplayer and created a server to play with my family but we couldn't figure out the IP. We tried the 0.0.0.1/0.0.0.0 And stuff like that but nothing seemed to work and we all got disappointed. If someone could let me know what I missed that would be greatly appreciated.
If you’re playing on LAN, you’d have to figure out what your computer’s IP address on your local network is (not your public IP)
I gotta know, what does the level 8 keycard unlock?
I've seen it on itch for a long time, but I decided not to download it. I forgot about the game for a while because my itch wasn't working)))
Well, I recently decided to check if the website was working or not.
Well, the website was working, so I decided to check it out. That's how I stumbled upon this game again)
I liked the game, the procedurally generated corridors, the creepy atmosphere, and the monsters that don't die with a single shot. There are different game modes, and I wish there were more. The game is fun, but I only got to play alone, and it was still great.
And by the way, about the game mode))))
I don't know if I'm the only one who had the brain to come up with an endless mode where you earn points for collecting documents, and those points are displayed in a table that lists the players with the highest points, like a leaderboard)
Okay, the game is cool, I'll try to play with someone, I hope I can find someone to play with)
I wish the developer good luck with development and a cool mood!!! ;)
And yet, the game resembles SCP :Р ( Sorry :) )
Hello, I executed the game on android with keyboard and mouse(bluetooth and wired), and there is a problem that makes the mouse get stuck on the sides of the screen. Game was executed on android 14 UI 6.1.
gang will this run on a power mac g3? :3333
Hi, I just wanted to ask, is there a chance of a touch control adaptation for the mobile version?
I was wondering the same thing, but i think you can use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard or controller (also bad english too,srry)
holy moly an update! love this game
i'm interested in volunteering translating the game into russian language how and where i could do that?
oh nvm i saw on the comment below that the game already has the files for it
the game reloads when trying to join using IP, any solutions? i cant play multi with my friend
Good to see this game's still being worked on!
I can see some new things here and there.
Keep it up. ^^
I have played this game with a friend and we liked it. Needs some polish and weapon are kinda weak, overall is a good game.
ITS BEING UPDATEDDD
WHAT DO YOU MEAN??
"i was meant to be new... i was meant to be beautiful..." "jupiter was meant to be a star but failed..."
lets go its being updated!
Yays! Updates :3
i like this game man you should revive it and put on steam....add more action and horror to it please!! i want to see ultimaximwolf aka VVOLF play this!!!
I think it would be more fun if there were actual different monster types, not just things with more meat on their necks having higher health. We have the regular bipedal things (zombies?) and the quadrupeds, but it'd be more interesting i think if there were more drastically different creatures each with their own distinct ability and disability. By all means, this is a great game and I love playing it, but sometimes it gets a little repetitive with almost every enemy being a regular looking guy with some weird tendrils on his neck stub.
Also, do you have any of the models for the characters and enemies available anywhere where I could get them? And if not, could you do that?
man it goes deeper... the dev is a cool guy but he actually gave up on this game, he said himself that game is dead on his dc server, and maximum he will do only minor bug fixes... rlly sad that such game dies without getting any popularity.
i had cool ideas about improving the game, i told the dev that he should give me several days and i would make some kind of word document or youtube video about improving the game. these ideas are done somewhere at 95% but i was supposed to release this "project" a month ago, then the reality hit me and i realised that i had too much of other things to do sadly (school and university stuff)
even tough i had ideas of these improvements, the dev told me that theres no guarantee that he would ever include some of the ideas, hes just turned off at this point, he doesnt sees the future for this gameee...
i know what this game actually needs, its - replaybility, perfect example of replayble game is dead rails on roblox, im making this example cuz its the least serious game which actually works in the way i need for this example. you want to play dead rails w friends, even tough you may know what is at the end, but theres always a kind of adventure or "gambling" type shi when playing a match there, and thats the kind of fire which this game misses.
its hard to think of a way to add some kind of these replaybility entertainment, my ideas are about making the game a little bit hard in some way, and whats more important, adding some kind of shop to make the points valuable in the first place. like imagine if you had to buy stuff at the start of every match, you had to balance ur points and loot, like get this cool gun for a very big amount of money, but then u cant buy urself useful meds or whatever. yeah i know it sounds strange and unbalanced, but actual ideas that i have wrote down in my note xdd really makes sence.
i hope ill find some time later to finish my "project" "copycats phenomenon - reborn" but even if so, im pretty sure (90%) that the dev will not do anything even if i show him cool stuff that could be added to the game.
srry about shitass grammar, im poor at english as well as its 4AM and im hella sleepy xddd
I do think a pregame shop would be kinda weird for a game like this, especially considering theres different classes with unique loadouts. I think what would be better is an upgrade system. You still have the same tools, but you can use those points to maybe buy more morphine and medkits and stuff, or upgrade ammo capacity, morphine effectiveness, gun damage, armor and armor durability/damage reduction, flashlight strength, etc. I do like the class system because it feels like you're choosing to be a part of a special forces team, and I think that would be lost if you were given too much freedom to give yourself whatever you want assuming you had the money for it.
I was also considering doing something liek that, remaking copycats phenomenon for funsies but i have atrocious work ethic and know I'll never finish it. If i do, it'd be a passion project.
Also what's his dc?

Does anyone know if v1.2.2 works with multiplayer? (I’d test it bu I don’t have anyone to play this with)
Hi, like the game solo but playing with someone (i am client not host) makes no maps load apart from the initial lobby area? like the game's idea tho, wish i could play with another person
