- PolyZ Development: What's in the Works? - 14 October 2024
PolyZ Development: What's in the Works? The last two patches were crucial to pave the way for some exciting new content, and I want to assure you all that I'm continuing to work hard to improve PolyZ as much as possible. So, here’s a sneak peek into what’s currently in development for the upcoming updates. First off, I believe the city needs more variety, with bigger and taller buildings to explore and loot. To address this, I’ve begun designing a new apartment block for the city. This won't just add height and structure, it’ll be home to zombified residents who never managed to escape their apartments, offering both danger and opportunity. You’ll be able to loot new interior containers in these buildings, adding more to discover with each floor. Here's a sneak peek of what it's looking like so far. Keep in mind, it’s a work in progress—the final version will be taller and fully texture…
