Hey, Wayfarers!
Welcome to our first Devs Diary!

The rails lead into the nightmare, and today we’re pulling back the tarp on what’s hunting you between stations. Every monster in Lost Railway is designed to test your coordination, not just your reflexes. Here’s who you’ll be outrunning, outsmarting, and praying you don’t meet alone:🌑 The Seeker
The seeker is searching for you all over the level; don’t stray from the group if you don’t want them to catch you. Be careful, direct confrontation is strongly discouraged. Survivors who’ve tried to stand their ground left behind logs that end in [̵͉̐D̷̟͘A̷̗͛T̴̖̈́A̶͔͐ ̸̝̃Ĕ̸̹X̷̻̉P̵͚̌U̴̺̇N̷̨͝G̸͉̈́E̴̠̅D̴̢̀]̶̥͛

🕳️ The Abomination

A massive monster that can only be defeated by striking its weak spot. It is dangerous, slow and powerful. They can liquefy themselves into a viscous slurry to move around the area more quickly.

🧟 The Preserved

They move like rusted machinery, soak up small-arms fire, and pack a bite that’ll drop your health in seconds. Shoot him in the head!

🐕‍🦺 The Hound

A common enemy with keen hearing but poor eyesight; it can be easily killed by a group of players or a single well-armed player, but can be extremely dangerous in a one-on-one situation because it can grab you and if your friend doesn’t come to your rescue in time, it will manage to bite you badly

So, can you handle our monsters? Stock up on loot, watch your step, and don’t let up. The next station isn’t waiting🚂🔦
