Genre: Action, Indie, RPG, Simulation, Early Access
Developer: Zero Point Software
Release Date: Tue, 02 Jul 2013
We've been hard at work on Update 27 and have made significant progress. This includes tactical reload, a fix for falling through the map in need of testing, and weapon changes for you to provide feedback on.

X-Mayhem Status
Right now there is a bug which spawns the present over and over again in the same space up to millions of times in an attempt to maximize holiday cheer, making the game mode unplayable. One of our programmers is looking at it though, and with his help Santa might be able to save Christmas after all!

Development Status
Several of our volunteer programmers attend university; Understandably, they’re occupied with end of semester projects and studying for finals. Unfortunately, this means development has slowed down and we’re not sure exactly when U27 will be ready.
