Escape From Z Demo Update: Fixes, Improvements & Thank You

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey everyone,

Thank you for playing the Escape From Z demo during Steam Next Fest.

I’m developing Escape From Z as a solo developer, and your feedback is already helping me improve the game. I’ve been reading player comments, watching gameplay videos, and fixing issues as quickly as possible.

Today’s demo update includes:

  • Fixed weapon switching issues while aiming

  • Improved item pickup interaction with E

  • Fixed several known input and keybind problems

  • Improved tutorial and control clarity

  • General bug fixes and balance adjustments

Escape From Z is a top-down zombie roguelite shooter where you fight your way down 15 zombie-infested floors, loot weapons, manage fear, fix weapon jams, upgrade your survivor, and try to escape alive.

If you enjoy the demo, wishlisting the game helps development a lot.

Thank you for supporting a solo indie developer.
