- Version 0.6.0 - Did you hear that? - 12 November 2022
Hey all! I bring a regular patch to the game that changes a few key aspects. For starters, zombies have been enhanced. The sound system and visual aspects when locating a player are more realistic. A player can now crouch around zombies without having them notice or trigger them. Heck, you can fire off a gun to redirect zombies' attention to yourself. Oh, and I buffed them... increased damage, movement speed, and decreased health. A big change was to the item icons, you may not notice this but performance will. They've all been changed from 3d objects to sprites. Should have done this a while ago. Break a leg! Players can now break legs if they jump from too high. This is fixed/cured by consuming morphine or makeshift splints. The splint can be crafted! Crafting menu tabs were added. Now you can pick a tab and filter down all the recipes into categories! Changelog - Added Player Sound L…

- Version 0.5.0 - KABOOM! Explosives, Base Repair, Zombie Buffs - 13 April 2022
This update includes a lot of new content, improvements, and polish. Right off the bat, explosives! You can now find propane tanks that can be lit with a matchbox and explode in ~4 seconds. The explosion will deal damage to all entities within a short radius. This includes players, zombies, base walls, foundations, and doors. For a larger explosion, dynamite can be crafted from gun powder! This also needs to be lit by a matchbox and explodes in ~8 seconds. This explosion deals more damage in a larger radius. Base Enhancements Base Building parts such as walls and floors will decay over time. This period should be around ~4 days. Parts will not decay to destruction, only 25% health. Parts can be repaired for a fraction of the cost to place a new one with specific tools. - Hand saw repairs wooden parts or deployables (ie Wooden Doors). - Chisel repairs stone and upgrades wooden parts to s…

Version 0.3.0 is here! This patch's major update is base building! Finally! Ever since the mod days, base building has been on Crafting Dead's radar. I am excited and terrified to see what comes of this! Please note, this patch INTRODUCES base building, it is not in a complete state. Far from it. There will be a lot of patches to tweak how base building will operate. Building Overview Important items include a Blueprint, Banner, Wooden (or Iron) Door. When placing building components, they will cost a specific amount of material from your inventory. When holding a blueprint, you can place a component by right-clicking. The default is a foundation.

- Crafting Dead Reboot (v0.2.0) - 9 November 2021
Crafting Dead has been rebuilt from the ground up. Version 0.2.0 is developed in a newer version of Unity with the networking framework Photon Bolt. For the time being, content is missing. This build is to work out the core mechanics before packing on the content and properly balancing items, drop rates, and zombies. Furthermore, servers will not be publicly available. Ferullo Gaming will host servers from time to time and notify "Lab Rats" in the discord to help test and look for bugs at a multiplayer scope. Cheers all!
- Huge Update - Recoding from Ground UP! - 6 September 2017

Just cleaning up the systems and improving the game overall. Including the network lag/latency. Example: New Menu http://prntscr.com/ghusor New Trees http://prntscr.com/ghusfj Resizing Character http://prntscr.com/ghurxi The next patch will include a new map as well. Something unique and not similar to Atlanta or DayZ' Chern map. Thank you to all those that support the game and more features will be introduced with the rework! :D
