  New Developments for Escape: Zombie Maze

  Hello everyone,I know it has been a long time since I shared a new update for Escape: Zombie Maze. Many of you have been wondering about the future of the game and waiting for news for quite some time. There are several important reasons for this, and today I want to explain them openly.Technically, I could have completed the game in its current form. However, over time I realized something important: the current system does not fully bring the game I have in mind to life. I did not want to continue just for the sake of finishing it. I felt it would be the wrong decision to complete the project without first building a stronger, more advanced, and more satisfying foundation. That is why the game has not been completed yet.But I do have some good news.The tests for the new system I have been working on are going very well. In fact, you will also see the completed parts of this new structure in the upcoming game. In other words, the mechanics I am building are not just for one project, but also a foundation for my future games.Here are some of the systems that have already been completed:Full Body FPS system8-direction animation systemIdle / Walk / Run / SprintCrouchProneJumpMelee combat systemSword attack systemI have made especially strong progress on character movement and melee combat. Compared to the old structure, the new system provides a much stronger foundation.However, there are still parts I am working on.

In other words, it will exist in the character’s framework, but it may remain disabled in gameplay.One of the areas I struggled with the most was NPC mechanics. I could not get the NPC side of the new system to the quality level I wanted, and I ran into several issues during the process. Because of t...

  Early Access Update + 1899: Secrets of the Maze Released!

  The full release of Escape Zombie Maze has been delayed due to ongoing development of the stealth animation system and new AI behaviors. We're currently facing integration issues with the new systems, and some modules need to be rewritten from scratch, which naturally requires additional time. However, the game continues to move forward steadily. 🧠 Development Status and Technical Details: Stealth animations are currently incompatible with the existing system. AI and control systems are being rebuilt from scratch to support these new features. As a result, the early access period has been extended. A new official trailer will be released once the game nears completion. 🧩 New Game Released – 1899: Secrets of the Maze Our brand-new title, 1899: Secrets of the Maze, which expands the Escape Zombie Maze universe, is now available! This game tells the story from a different time period and with a new protagonist. It also includes two chapters directly from Escape Zombie Maze, offering fans a connected experience with a fresh twist. If you're into horror, mystery, and puzzle-solving, you'll definitely want to check it out. 💰 Pricing and Purchase Information: Once Escape Zombie Maze is completed, its price will be increased. However, players who purchase the current early access version will not be affected by the price change. If, for any reason, the project is discontinued, the current price will remain unchanged. 🙏 Thank You and Final Note: Thank you to everyone supporting both games! Please feel free to share your feedback, suggestions, and thoughts — your input is incredibly valuable. This project grows stronger with your support!

  Escape: Zombie Maze - A New Update is Coming!

  Dear Players, We are preparing a major update for Escape: Zombie Maze. Here’s what you can expect: The Last 10 Levels: The final 10 levels of the game are being added. These levels will require more strategy and offer greater challenges! Katana Update: The katana will be improved. As there will be no ammunition available in the last 10 levels, this weapon will be crucial for your survival. Background Music: Background music will be added to the first 17 levels. Additionally, dark-themed levels will feature appropriate atmospheric music. Zombie Combat: The game remains realistic – defeating zombies without precise strikes is tough. However, this update may introduce adjustments to combat mechanics, especially in the early levels. Traps: Traps will be introduced in the last 10 levels. You’ll need to lure zombies into these traps – a new strategic challenge! Labyrinth Improvements: Due to the large size of the labyrinths, small hints like lights, images, or holograms will be added from level 24 onwards to assist with navigation. Remember: This update will make the game more strategic and deliver an even more intense zombie combat experience. Get ready for new content and improvements! We’ll share more details about this update soon. Stay tuned, and thank you for your support!
