New Method of Submitting a Custom Level To The Level Editor Contest

Hey there again fellow Deadites!

We've been listening to your feedback on the Level Editor and noticed that there seems to be some confusion surrounding how to set the correct contest tags to custom level submissions.

To make things easier on everyone, we decided to update the game and just release a new version which allows players to Directly publish their custom chapter directly into the contest. This should help to greatly decrease any misunderstanding and faulty submissions.

To do this, please follow the following instructions:
  1. Please make sure that you've installed the latest update for the game here on Steam
  2. Once you've installed the latest update, start the game and toggle on the "Submit the chapter to the Steam Workshop Contest" option in the publish menu. This will allow you to submit your custom chapter level directly. Please see the screenshot below for a quick illustration of how to do this.




Please note the following important rule for submitting levels to the contest using this method:
  • Any custom chapters submitted to the contest can only contain ONE LEVEL. These levels can include cut-scenes and tutorials, but can only contain one Level. Attempting to submit a chapter which has more than one level will result in a error.

We really hope that this update makes it easier for everyone to be able to successfully submit their devious masterpieces to the contest. We can't wait to see more of the demented levels that you guys will create!

Thanks again for your continued support guys and happy creating!


Patch 1.3.4


  • Fixed progression not unlocking the next chapter properly
  • Fixed an error preventing chapter edit menu from working
  • Added an error message in chapter edition when there are missing levels in the level list
  • Fixed removing alternate levels in chapter menu resulting in an incorrect state
  • Rename the "Localize" Field to "Use Official Dialogue" in the dialogue editor to reduce confusion
  • Fixed dialogue editor not updating the "official dialogues" preview
  • Fixed some blank dialogues in imported levels after editing existing dialogues
  • Fixed some typos in the editor

Patch 1.3.3


  • Fixed game over screen not showing in some levels
  • Improved game over screen animation

Patch 1.3.2

The last patch broke the mac OS steam integration, this should now be fixed.

Patch 1.3.1

The latest update had some issues with some anti-viruses and Steam was not initializing correctly on Linux.

This update should fix the Steam initialization error and a bug preventing you to publish a chapter without a cover, the antivirus false positive was fixed last night with a quick hotfix.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience and hope your still having fun feeding your zombie horde!
