Over 575 new renders, ~2500 new lines of script, and 18 new animations

This update is part of the NTR/Sharing route and picks up right where it left off, saves should work fine.

I will preface this by letting you all know, this update is not 100% complete! I have posted this update so that everyone can get back in the game and enjoy as much new content as possible while I finish the remaining scenes with Zoey.

I've also implemented a phone that is used during the first major half of the update, be careful when using your scroll wheel in the phone menu, this is my first attempt at creating a phone with the help of another dev who assisted me with the code, but it can still be confusing for many.

When the conversations end while clicking through messages, simply use the back button on the phone itself to progress.



I have been working on the update for quite some time, but have decided to begin releasing content more frequently, even while I continue to work on scenes I wanted to include. I typically would release what feels like a complete chapter, but at the rate that goes, moving to a new way of updating with smaller patches will be more beneficial in the long run, and allow everyone to see more frequent progress vs feeling like I've dipped.

If you aren't in the discord, I recommend joining it to follow the #Announcements channel where you can keep up with progress, connect with me individually, and have a more up to date perspective on development progress because it's simply much faster than doing these blog posts.


Not a lot, but for some these are important. I still need to finish updating the gallery with all the new scenes, making it easier for you all to see if you've missed any content. I also have a large scene with Zoey that I'm just about finished with where she is the one you bring to the neighbors, but didn't want to delay any longer. Otherwise, Steam achievements for the new update will also not be implemented until these other objectives are completed soon here. So bare with me on that.

I hope you guys enjoy, and if you experience any bugs or launch problems, write it in the comments below and I will fix it ASAP. Thank you guys for your patience, happy wanking!

Howdy! It’s been a while but we’ve got some great improvements for you all to check out! We’ve been hunkered down and focused on some much needed optimizations and feature requests! We’ve introduced new sewers in Blackrock, true offline mode, a really nice party system and some great fixes and optimization! Below is just a little showcase of a few of our fixes and features in 1.39. Be sure to checkout the changelog at the end of the blog for more details.

Unfortunately, a database increment will be required for this update. However, with version 1.0 just around the corner, this should be one of the last wipes we’ll have to deal with! We’re going to focus heavily on polishing things up for the best possible release coming out of early access!

Probably the 2nd most requested feature next to real single player. The party system allows players to chat, share XP, it has its own ranks, custom name tags along with friendly-fire blockers! Check out the commands below.


Party commands


Party Chat

Single player’s been your #1 request—and it’s finally here.

Full offline mode. Hop into your world-save settings, flip the Single Player toggle to ON (sets single player=true behind the scenes), connect via localhost, and play with zero internet.
Auto-pause. Step away from the keyboard: in single player the whole world freezes—zeds included. Jump back in whenever. (Online worlds still behave exactly as before.)

Heads-up: Steam achievements & stats won’t track while you’re offline; they need a live Steam connection. Also you will need to make at least one connection with internet enabled to authenticate with Steam but after that no more internet needed!

We hope this helps out those that want to play on the go or just don’t have great internet access. If you’re having any issues feel free to shoot a message over to us via Discord.

A nice quality of life improvement added in 1.39 is quick adding. You can now hold add and remove (+ and -) buttons on all machines to quickly add and remove items! This small detail really helps smooth machine interactions over.


Quick add fire


Quick add fuel/vehicle

We’ve focused on a lot of optimization here. Sector lag is practically gone, the entire project just seems far more fluid. There have been major performance boosts to the server, world-loading, zombie hordes, startup, vegetation, barricades, DB, power-station load, sound dampening all kinds of really nice polish to push us towards a solid release.

Everyone should see a major improvement to performance across the board. With higher frame rates overall and significantly reduced world loading lag.

We’ve added support for AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3), and it’s now the default anti-aliasing mode in the game.

FSR 3 boosts performance by rendering at a lower resolution and upscaling the image to maintain sharpness and detail. At higher settings, it also tends to look cleaner than traditional anti-aliasing, with smoother edges and fewer artifacts—without the same performance cost.
It works on all modern GPU types, not just AMD cards, so everyone can benefit regardless of hardware.

You can still switch to other options in the graphics settings, but FSR 3 offers a solid balance of visuals and performance by default.

Another massive improvement is to vehicles and driving mechanics. Players will instantly noticed how much smoother driving around the map feels due to our efforts with optimization. Check out the short video below and enjoy the smoothness! Keep in mind watching the video that JB is driving and his skills are pretty unmatched so don’t be too jealous ;)



Along with the far smoother experience when it comes to driving, we have also added the player owner tag on vehicles, so that should make figuring out who’s car is who’s much easier!


Car owner now displayed on the vehicles hover UI

Vehicle fuel usage is also now dynamic, based on engine load. This will allow players to idle vehicles and not worry about running out of fuel so quickly. Obviously you will also use more fuel based on how fast you’re going so take it easy ova hea!

We’ve added fortification placement snapping to free placed fortifications. Making walls and zombie blockers has never been easier, or neater!
