• Yet Another Development Update - September 2026 - 9 September 2026

  ㅤㅤWelcome, Survivor! I hope you're doing well! In today's devlog, I'd like to talk about how the full release went, what we're doing right now, and what's coming up in the near future. I'd also like to officially welcome all the new Survivors that joined us after the full release. These devlogs are something we do a few times a year to put the most important information and related events into one place and convey them to the community (which you're now part of, yay!). So, without further ado, let's get started! YAZS launch was awesome! We can all agree the launch was a success! A lot of you have returned to check what's new, but we've also gained 100,000 new players in the launch week! We've also managed to have almost 10,000 concurrent players on Steam, which, while not the highest peak in YAZS history, is still a very large number! Thank you all for being there with us! We hope you'r…

  ㅤWelcome, Survivor! The launch was great so far, so first of all, please accept our thanks! ːheart_meː We're not slowing down, and are spending each day working on improvements and fixes to the game, the amount of which grows larger with every passing work hour.

• Yet Another Update 0.9.2 - 19 March 2026

  Welcome, Survivor! While we're working on the full release version (1.0), we'd like to share with you some of the things we've made so far. We've compiled so many new features and systems that you could even say it's a 0.10 update! We're adding support for 7 new languages to the game! Additionally, we've just released the game's official soundtrack here on Steam. But that's not all - far from it! Every weapon now has its own range parameter stat that makes it scale better or worse at specific distances. This opens new team compositions and tweaks the most powerful and the weakest choices. The game should now run much smoother, with increased framerates and faster load times all across the board. You can now control the Game Speed parameter and display the Pickup Range circle, to see the exact distance at which you'll pick things up. You can also now see each area's boundaries on the min…

• Yet Another Development Update — February 2026 - 3 February 2026

  ㅤWelcome, Survivors! It's been a while, hope you're having a great 2026 so far! Today, I'd like to talk about the progress we're making and the changes we plan to implement soon. Full Release Development Update Work on version 1.0 is going on nicely and we're still aiming to release it in the first-half of the year. At the time of writing, we're in the second half of the implementation of the brand new, main hub location, which is the Survivor's base camp in which you'll be chilling and spending time in-between runs. We're looking into translating the various existing main menu interfaces into Hub-integrated menus. Rest assured that we're ensuring your experience will be as seamless as possible. If you prefer to quickly navigate to your destination with a few button presses, you'll still be able to do so. We've already written a lot of text, including character stories, quests and rando…

  We have received 8,023 responses, thanks! You can view the results of the poll . And so, it's decided. Horde Survival took the third place, Survivors-like the second, and... with 3,528 votes as the first choice, the winning tag we'll be using is: ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ Drum roll please! ㅤㅤBullet Heaven Thank you, everyone, for taking part in the gaming history! While this means we did it, and we're almost there, there's one more thing we can do together: ㅤTag the games in this genre with the "Bullet Heaven" user tag!
