Development Update 9

Dead Metro · published 27 Oct 2025, 14:34 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

This update focuses on improving overall balance and performance.
From our previous updates, we noticed gameplay issues after testing, specifically, item distribution for players during each gameplay loop took too long, as basic crafting materials were often difficult to find.

To address this problem, we’ve added new lootable props that contain essential crafting items, allowing players to access basic materials more easily and start building their base faster.

Trash Loot


We’ve added more environmental detail by decorating areas with piles of trash, giving the map a more dynamic and detailed appearance.

These props also serve as new loot points where players can find basic crafting materials such as oil, scrap metal, and iron pipes.

Additionally, these props can provide visual cover during PvP encounters while also helping to improve scene performance by reducing visible complexity in certain areas.

Chest Label


We’ve added the ability to write names or custom text on storage chests, allowing players to label what’s inside or mark ownership by adding their name.

This feature helps players organize their storage and plan more efficiently

and it’s still under active development for future improvements.

New Item

  • leg cooking "now the player can cook the infected part"
  • iron pipe "You can craft a weapon from an iron pipe and a suppressor weapon part."
  • metal ingot "good material for crafting any item"

An additional system has been added to improve player convenience and overall gameplay experience.

  • auto use item when player has a grabbable usable item
  • quick-use item with a double click on the usable item
  • Now the player can trap and ammo in the crafting menu
  • car trunk loot

Next is a list of various fixes and adjustments, most of which focus on gameplay improvements to make it easier for players to access and interact with the game systems.

  • Infected spawn point
  • loot balance
