- BUG FIXES! - 30 August 2026
This patch is almost entirely bug fixes, driven directly by your reports and reviews. Thank you to everyone who posted repro steps in the discussions — several of these were found because of them. Highlights Beating the game finally counts when you enter Endless Mode. Accepting the Endless offer now banks your victory first: the win is recorded, the next ritual level unlocks, new necromancers unlock, and the achievement fires. Previously all of that was silently skipped — if you beat ritual 0 and nothing unlocked, this was why. The equipment duplication bug is fixed, along with the broken state it left behind where items and body parts could no longer be moved or discarded for the rest of the run. Roster-wiping events no longer appear in normal runs. The demon lord punishment events (including the one that destroys every zombie you own) were escaping their Endless Mode gating and could…
- Endless Revamp Patch (v1.3.3) - 27 July 2025
Endless Revamp Patch (v1.3.3)The title was not a typo. The latest patch focuses on completely reworking and overhauling endless mode. Not only is endless mode harder, it’s also been transformed from a mindless infinity grind to a fully featured addition containing 50 new events! Some of which will be quite surprising… Additionally both the Chinese (zh-Hanz) and Chinese (zh-TW) have been re-translated. Hopefully they’re nicer to read now.

- Rarity Overhaul Patch (v1.3.2) - 12 July 2025
Today’s patch focuses on all things organ rarities, starting with a nice visual bar to display how likely each rarity is. As you upgrade your shop and unlock more rare organs this bar will update to reflect the likelihoods.In addition to this the rarity scaling has been completely reworked. It should still feel very familiar, but now scales all the way until epic is a 100% chance (yes, this is now technically possible!) At the risk of overwhelming here is a complete breakdown of the differences between the old and new chances. Note that most changes are within a few percentage points so generally you shouldn’t notice much. But what of the new scaling? It’s right here:After your rarity passes the old maximum, every rarity will now slowly taper off until only epic organs will spawn. This new chart can be reached both through existing events and relics (the shovel is now good again) and se…
- Inventory Sorting Patch (v1.3.1) - 8 July 2025
Inventory Sorting Patch (v1.3.1)This patch adds sorting buttons to the worker screen, saving many clicks! Min-maxers be warned: it does not auto-assign workers to the slot that gives the most. Rather than completely removing the worker assignment minigame clicking the button will sort your workers by that job type, then blindly assign workers starting from the back to the front. This always puts your best zombie at the last slot of the job which may not always be the best one… Full ChangelogAdded Inventory sortingAdded one more slot to player worker inventory to reflect the maximum number of zombies (13)Bug Fixes:Fixed a crash that could happen if you continued a save that left off in the work screenFixed a crash that could happen if you rolled an event that does not exist

Announcements A professional localization of simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese is currently being worked on. I expect this to be ready and in game within two weeks.

Switched out the proceed button with a collect all button. You will now automatically collect all resources from battle by pressing this button. You can still click on individual items for that fun feedback. In order to reduce confusion for new players, the witch’s house will be closed until day 2, the blacksmith will be closed until day 3, and the demonologist will be closed until day 4. UI Updates Battle rewards now shimmy and shake a little - hopefully looking more clickable. When you hover over the primary stats on your zombies in the workshop, it will highli…

- Praise Dead - Major Update v 1.1 - Meta progression is here! - 26 January 2024
Praise Dead - Major Update v 1.1 Meta-progression Hello everyone! In this major update I have added 25 new meta-progression upgrades that will greatly change the way your zombies do battle. These upgrades start off as simple stat improvements and can work their way up to exploding critical strikes that do damage to the entire field. Each upgrade can be taken at least once, but many can have multiple points you can allocate into them. Upgrades also have tiers which indicate their power level. For a rank 10 upgrade you will first need to allocate 10 meta-progression points before they become available. These points can be divided however you choose. New Necromancer In addition to the meta-progression system, I have also added a new necromancer that relies on dealing damage by taking damage. Necromancer Springstep is equipped with a new boss relic, Prickles the Hedgehog. This hedgehog give…

Hello fellow Necromancers! I am hard at work finishing up version 1.1 of Praise Dead which will include a lot of new content for everyone to play with.

Additionally you can expect to see some new relics, new weapons, new armor, and even a new necromancer. That's all for now, please let me know if you have any questions or feature requests. Best, -Will (Intrepid Marmot)
