The evacuation was set to launch, everything was being prepared and readied. It was all going to plan. However, unbeknownst to Cody and Anling, something terrible was about to befall them…
A Delay!!!
News reached Cody and Anling that they would no longer be able to evacuate as planned, that some VIPs were being evacuated before they would be able to, or so they claimed. Undeterred by the news though, the pair continued preparations in wait of their new evacuation date, counting down the days until finally…
It was December 7th, 2023, when Cody and Anling were finally promised their long-awaited evacuation. Will you be able to get them there?
Hey all!
Undying's launch date has been pushed to December 7th, 2023. Unfortunately, it was a difficult window to squeeze into with our planned date, and with some recent announcements in mind, we felt it was best to move to a later date.
But do not fret! This gives us extra time to polish the game, improve localizations, and perhaps include some extra goodies for everyone to enjoy at launch, such as this outfit!
We will have more news about what will be happening between now and launch.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Due to the lockdowns in Beijing during November and the surging "positive wave" in December, the work of the development team has been impacted by a few weeks (tears!), but fortunately, as of December 23, 70% of the team has returned to work! We are working hard to minimize the impact on the progress of the work. So, please mothers, look forward to the arrival of the full version in the near future!
Happy Holidays, be safe and enjoy!
Nominate us for the Labor of Love Award!
With the team having spent so many years working on the project and we can see the light at the end of the tunnel getting closer, it would be amazing if all of our wonderful fans nominated us for the Steam Awards!

Missed the notes? Check them out below!
Major Changes
Starting a new game? Cody will no longer be a pure rookie. When you start a new adventure, based on game difficulty, Cody will now start with a number of initial skills to help get you started! (In survival mode, you can also customize the number of Cody's initial skills when starting a new game).
Cody can now collect continuously! After learning the appropriate skill, he can help Anling collect water, wood, and other resources continuously without having to pick them up one by one.
The world map UI now adds a "regrown resource" hint. A simple reminder that certain vegetation and crops can now be harvested after being harvested previously!
We have provided a set of free exclusive skins for Early Access players! There are three new sets of skins for both Anling and Cody!
It’s Halloween! And it wouldn’t be Halloween without treats! You can now find special cupcakes within the world… but should they be eaten?
The number of abandoned cars that can be looted has greatly increased.
New boxes requiring lockpicks have been added in throughout the world.
Some data balance optimizations:
Firearm damage has been increased significantly.
Mine and Ground Spike damage has been increased by 100%.
Reduced the number of armed enemies and respawn rates at the Factory.
Increased the chances of getting gasoline.
You can loot wood in more locations.
Some experience optimizations:
The Skin preview screen now supports character rotation.
Based on player feedback, we have set an upper limit on the Mania symptom.
The scroll wheel is now supported in more UI elements.
Minimap control now supports controllers.
When Cody learns an “Assist” skill, the “Teach Cody” UI will be replaced with “Assist.”
When collecting wood and dismantling cars, new items will go to Inventory until the bag is full.
In addition to the above updates, we are working very hard to bring you the next major update as we head closer and closer to the full launch! Please look forward to it!
