Hey everybody! Which present are you going to unwrap first?

I hope you all are having a wonderful week, taking a short break from your daily grind, and spending some time with family and friends.

Hopefully you all enjoyed the new update! Thanks so much for the support that you have shown. I will be out of town on vacation until next Tuesday, so I'll be unavailable to fix any game bugs or answer any questions until I get back.

This time of year is always stressful and can be depressing to some. If you're feeling down, or stressed, remember that there are people who care about you. Take care of yourself. I love you!

We've been chatting about these amazing zoos through December, and we're in awe of your skills!!

A VERY big thank you to everyone who uploaded zoos for us to marvel at - we've loved seeing everyone's creations and can't wait to see what the new year brings too!

Before we get stuck into our winners, a MASSIVE thank you to you as a community! To everyone who has submitted a bug report or feature request, made a video, streamed the game, drawn up some fan art, shared their zoo creations, commented on some LBaZ content, told a friend... THANK YOU! It's been a whirlwind of a year for the team, and no one can quite believe the reaction! Thank you for staying with us and playing our game, you've been incredible to chat to and watch over the last few months!!



A special shout out to @welshpixie as well, who has been an incredible help with all manner of zoo-based goings-on. She's been an incredible help (and her guide on Steam is great!)

It is now possible to visualize the trajectories for a selected attack plan (in the attack planer menu)

- white: ballistic missile trajectories
- yellow: cruise missile trajectories
- blue: aircraft paths

This new feature can be used to quickly visualize an attack plan, to create illustrations and to look for intersections with the early-warning radar search fences:




Plan execution is now possible from the scenario editor giving a better overview of available attack plans and making a fast execution more comfortable:


It is now possible to set the desired resolution, choose between windowed and full-screen mode, limit frame rate. The audio settings now follow the standard allowing to control main, music and effects volumes independently. A button is there to select another random track if you don't like what is playing in the moment. Some new background music is added.

- Optimization: effects on humans are optimized

Build 262

Greetings from the Colony! As the year 2021 is coming to an end, Alkimia Interactive and THQ Nordic just wanted to wish everyone Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year.

Thank you for your support and enjoy the holidays! We have prepared a short video from the Gothic Remake developers. The Goblin's hats will of course not be part of the game, who would put a Santa outfit in a game?

It's that time of the year again.

Just the time for a winter horror experience
New co-op horror game, HIDEAWAY, will be out as Early Access on New Year's Eve.

Get ready to face a bone chilling Cryptid in this constantly snowing land, with new and updated achievements, new gameplay mechanic; "cold exposure" and a new challenge; "frostbitten state".

• Cold Exposure
  Staying outside the Cabin for a certain time will put you in "cold" state.
  In this state you will be slightly slowed down and your vision will be blurred slightly.
  New related Achievement: Stay in "Cold Exposure" state for 10/20/30 minutes outside Cabin to unlock three new achievements!
  
• Frostbitten State
  "Legend tells a story of a Beast that is so cold hearthed, when it touches anyone, they will be "frostbitten" and freeze right in that moment."
  With this new challenge, if you ever get caught by the Cryptid, you will then become "frostbitten", -an advanced version of the cold state- you will be slowed down considerably, your movement will become wobbly and your vision will blur considerably.
  You have to find shelter or a near heat source to warm up immediately.
