- Preventing loss of save data - 19 May 2026
Quick Patch 2.1.5.1Yesterday's patch contained a coding error that could result in loss of save data, depending on what your save files looked like, and what you did when you first loaded the game.Unfortunatelly, some people were affected by this, and brought it to my attention. It might still be possible to recover your save data, because the game saves files on 2 different folders, on windows "Documents" folder: \:\\Users\\\\\Documents\\ZumbiBlocks2 and \:\\Users\\\\\Documents\\ZumbiBlocks2BackupsYou can try copying files from the backup folders over to the main ZumbiBlocks2 folder to see if you can recover your progress. I apologize for the incovenience.I plan on improving the save system on the future, to make it more secure, easier to manage multiple save slots and backup recovery, and synchronize with Steam Cloud data. But for now this quick fix will hopefully be enough.

For now all difficulty modes are available from the start, and skins / perks are unlocked by just beating bosses or buying loadout boxes.

- Update 2.1.0.4 (lobby codes and physics optimization) - 28 May 2023
Just a small update to add a much requested feature: entering a code to join people's lobbies, instead of having to be friends on Steam.
