- Announcement: Spawn System Overhaul and Highscore Update! - 3 January 2025
Hey Keepers! We’ve been blown away by the incredible skill and perseverance of our community—many of you have surpassed the highest nights we ever expected in the game! However, this has revealed an unexpected issue: after Night 80, the spawn rate mechanics caused fewer enemies to appear, unintentionally decreasing the difficulty instead of increasing it. We will roll out some significant changes to address this and ensure the game remains challenging and fun: What’s Changed: Minimum Spawn Period: Enemies will now spawn at highest every 0.5 seconds. Night 51+ Adjustments: Enemies won’t spawn faster after Night 51 but will increase in difficulty by scaling hp. HP Scaling: Starting from Night 51, enemy HP will increase by 5 each night. These changes ensure the game remains challenging after Night 51. Highscore Updates: We know how much your highscores mean to you and the community. Removi…
