Alpha1.16
The Alpha 1.16 patch is finally here! We’re excited to add two new missions to the game, a new and dangerous human weapon type: the machine gun turret, and a whole new section of the Mission Select screen to make room for the new missions. The usual complement of bug fixes and smaller improvements, as well.

Mission04 (“Night Terrors”) is our first nighttime mission, and takes place in the Small Town map, after the initial outbreak, when the human military first confronts your growing zombie infestation. The boots of heavily armed soldiers echo through the shadows, pools of light emanate from street lamps and spill from the brightly lit shop windows. Some citizens seem to be easy prey, but many are now armed. Hey, what zombie doesn't enjoy the night?

Mission05 (“Breakthrough”) introduces the Tank Zombie to the story, as well as a new destructible that requires the use of a Tank Zombie to successfully complete the mission (we’ll leave it up to you to discover that particular destructible). Okay, actually, it is possible to brute force your way through the mission without taking advantage of the new destructible, but it’s waaaay harder, and not really recommended. This is the first mission map to use the Warehouse District set of graphics, much of which will be familiar to those who have already played the skirmish maps. The Warehouse District maps are neither night nor day, but instead are set in a kind of eternal post-apocalyptic gloom - the kind of thing that drives human survivors slowly insane for lack of a proper day/night cycle.

Read on for all the nitty gritty details . . .

Alpha1.16 (10/29/2015)
New
  • Mission 04 - “Night Terrors”
  • Mission 05 - “Breakthrough”
  • New human weapon - machine gun turret
  • Mission Select screen updates:
    1. Separate sections for mission maps vs. skirmish maps
    2. Updated scene graphics
    3. New radio plays for new missions
  • Bonus goals - all missions (including the two new ones) now have two functional bonus goals
  • Pooling and limiting for footstep sounds - footstep sounds don’t go missing, and don’t overlap so much that they cause weird audio artifacts
  • Added Steam Cloud support
  • Better lighting for destroyed pieces of destructibles after the destruction has happened - no longer tied to the character lighting
Tuning
  • Boss upgrades cost more
  • Speed Zombie ranged attack less powerful
  • Reviewed and tuned starting and max chaos levels for all maps
Fixes
  • No longer possible to target the Speed Zombie bile projectile for an attack
  • Mission 01 - Humans running out of bounds
  • Mission 02 - Goat bonus linked to the wrong character (female rifle unit)
  • Mission 03 - Swat reinforcements visible at edge of the map and mini map at beginning of the mission
  • Mission 03 - Speed Zombie mutation pop-up and counter-attack notice pop-up working again
  • Skirmish 01 - Military spawning out of forward base are backtracking before finding their way
  • Misc bug fixes

Hey, just shy of a year to move the game forward with a decimal patch. At this point, we'll have a game my grandkids can play.

Not impressed , theres early access and ♥♥♥♥♥ footing around knowing you aint going to do much with the game.

Best part of a year as said for this, total ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

As someone said this offering is just to keep themselves out of court.

"The usual complement of bug fixes and smaller improvements, as well." I dont think your allowed to use the word "Usual" when the updates are this spread out.
