- Uncontrollable cravings for human flesh
- Rapid cognitive decline and loss of reason
- Ultimately, complete physiological and behavioral transformation
In light of this dire situation, the Department of Health is issuing the following emergency directives, effective immediately:
1. Destroy all grain products: Residents are advised to immediately dispose of any grain-based products in their possession, including flour, bread, baked goods, and beer.
2. Avoid affected individuals: If you encounter individuals exhibiting the above symptoms, do not approach or attempt to interact with them. Instead, report their location to emergency services immediately and seek shelter in a secure location.
3. Seek medical attention: If you suspect that you or a loved one may have consumed contaminated grain products, seek medical attention at once. Quarantine procedures will be implemented at all local hospitals and clinics to prevent further spread of the pathogen.

Hey Bread Or Dead VR Players! Here's What We're Working On.
Hello Bread Or Dead VR Players! If you've been enjoying the game recently, you might wonder what the next updates have in store. Here's a rough roadmap as to what we'll be doing. First, I'll start with what we want to do in the short term. Squashing jank and bugs is crucial. If you have a problem, come over to our discord and we'll attempt to fix it; We get ~75% of our bugs from the community. Other than that, we want to focus on ironing out confusing mechanics (which there are a lot of). The biggest offender for that right now is the camp game mode due to complexity. If you're wondering about new features: We want to get in some new enemies for story mode. A few ideas have been tossed around including giant dragonflies infected by the Evil Yeast or more mutated zombies. Either way, we want to increase variety in that area. Another new feature that we want to get in is a Hunger/Thirst system for the story mode as well as more exciting looting. We've already prototyped the Hunger/Thirst system and it's working well. As for looting, we've already brought some changes to fridges that make them easier to open, but we want to crack open some of the drawers that you are physically incapable of looting as well. Some more unique doodads will adorn the shelves inside. These short term plans will be partially rolled out by the end of this year. We're looking at 1 more update before 2025. Next, for the long term plans. We want to prioritize getting Story Mode and Tech Tree ready long-term. Tech Tree mode has some long-standing problems we need to fix including the travel time between zones, the odd-looking nature of the scanner, and the relative lack of stylization on the UI. Also, we need to increase enemy variety and add some more events that bring chaos, whether that be zombie dogs, marauders, or a boss wave of some sort. Story Mode is a longer story. While it's in a decent place right now, what we need to do is make saving/loading a more reliable endeavor, add Egypt and ot...Read full article on Community Announcements (WooStudios)Patch NotesOfficial
