v0.7 Public Is Out!

Siren Of The Dead
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

Hello everyone,

After more than 2 months, finally the v0.7 is here!

Here are the highlights:

[New Zombie Types: Crawler and Wanker]

The Crawler is small, fast, and low profile, making it hard to shoot. Fortunately for him, losing his lower half provides a big advantage. However, unlike others, he takes more significant damage and a slow debuff from barbed wire. In trade, the barbed wire itself takes 3x durability reduction. So don't let him crawl for too long!

A bit of development time was spent on deciding the crawler's appearance, especially his size. A smaller-sized crawler is more interesting, yet there are considerations. So he is now moderately small (scale 0.5).

Besides his size, his halved stature also underwent a significant starved-like makeover, and his reproductive organ is missing. His animations will mainly consist of extracting nutrition from the MC. However, some exceptions may be in place, as game over animations can provide variations in the crawler's appearance, including his size. The scale slipped to 0.45, oops teehee.

The Wanker zombie is slow and tanky. His hands protect his head and torso when walking, but not when wanking. In fact, he takes more damage when wanking as that is when he is most vulnerable. He shoots projectiles that can make the MC all sticky if hit, rendering her slower (reloading and switching weapons). The projectile itself can be shot down mid-air.

[3 New Struggle Animations]

One each for crawler, wanker and spider

[Deadeye's Encounter (> day 15)]

Deadeye, a composed and honorable man, met her and always respected her boundaries. Nothing bad ever happened to those melons. Pinky promise.

[Minor Improvements]

- Wider battlefield

- Darker environment

- Buffed all weapon upgrade accuracy

- Battle progress bar

- Increased spawn rate for special zombies

- The game will now prioritize locked animations first on game over

- Surrender toggle on struggle minigame
