we would like to present you the enlightening version 1.4 update, which will especially inspire those who like to loot at night. Furthermore, playing from the couch is now finally possible - for extra long nights.
Let there be light!
In "Deadly Days" it has so far been very difficult to keep track at night. There was a lack of contrast and it was not easy to find the bus.
That's why we developed and implemented a lighting system that improves the gaming experience at night. It also looks great, have a look for yourself. But be careful, the difficulty level hasn't decreased, so don't enjoy the beautiful lighting effects for too long.
Controller support
After we have experimented with an additional control concept for a while, we would like to introduce you to our controller setup, which we think works very well. So if you want to spend a few hours in "Deadly Days", you can now sit back and relax. But be careful: The later the night, the faster the zombies. Are you fast enough with the controller to survive? Find out for yourself…
Other changes
Added: UI feedback when characters are healed

Version 1.3 - Awesome Dogs killing Santas Every Day
Ho ho ho survivors,
we have gifts for you! Lots of new stuff for "Deadly Days" that you can find in version 1.3.
Daily Mode - Deadly Edition
We think our daily mode was quite fun already, but we completely overhauled it, in order to add much more replayability and variety! We added over 35 different modifiers that make each daily run unique (by choosing 3 of them randomly). Be warned that very difficult challenges may await you.
Please note that we cleared all the daily scores for today before the release. So you have another chance to die today :)
Content, Content, Content!
You can find new powers, items, weapons and characters.
The new powers are: Lifesteal and Dog squad. Lifesteal gives your characters temporarily the ability to heal when damaging. Dog squad... take a look at it yourself.
New survivors also appeared in the world of "Deadly Days". Nobody knows where they came from, but Elkman helps all your survivors being faster when moving. And then there is Casanova. He falls in love with another survivor. Together they are double as strong. But as soon as the loved one of Casanova dies, Casanova will die too. Sad, right?
Survivors also need new weapons. Say hi to the spear and the crossbow. The spear is a long ranged melee weapon. The crossbow is a new legendary weapon with different bolt properties (exploding, freezing, etc.).
You can also find two new items: Handheld console and Spare wheel. The handheld console will temporarily buff your survivors each time they level up. The spare wheel will improve your outcome when looting cars.
Christmas Theming
Sure we also added some Christmas flair to the game ;)
Other changes
Improved: UI for difficulty selection
Improved: Some small performance optimizations
Fixed: In the factory interactions with stuff from the next room were possible (thanks @Exorcismus)
Fixed: Berserk could lead to giant survivors (thanks @ilias)
Fixed: Dog behavior sometimes got confused ("Rudi" item)
Fixed: Oktoberfest power upgrade didn't work properly
We hope you enjoy the changes. And wish you happy holidays!

Version 1.2 - Pumpkins at the Graveyards
Hi survivors,
since Halloween is near we wanted to take the opportunity to bring some spooky flair into Deadly Days and even add some cool new stuff. So we release version 1.2.
New survivors have arrived
Keep your eyes out on those rescue missions and you might see some new faces. They all are Halloween flavored but will stay as permanent additions to the game.

Occasionally you might now come across a graveyard mission. The graveyard features plenty opportunity to rob some graves and dig up some belongings. You might even find someone you thought to already have lost. The graveyard will also be permanently added to the game.
New event: Rat infestation
We also added a new random map event. The rat infestation. The map will be crowded with rats and a mini boss rat. While doing that we improved rat graphics.
Halloween decoration
Around the time of Halloween, starting today, themed decorations can be found in some places. Some zombies even took the opportunity to dress for the occasion.
Other changes
Added: You can now level up after level 20. This level is seperate from the characters trait but will increase their maximum health.
Added: STEAM rich presence support
Fixed: Sometimes survivors could be hooked by half zombies while jumping in the bus
Fixed: Double looting by the thief could increase the objective count multiple times
Fixed: The chosen rooms in the final mission were not based on the run seed
