During these times, the greater proportion of the development calendar, we try to update the IWBUMS beta every Thursday. You can see all our public build content, and the dates of release, here.Īfter a build is released and patched we reopen our public unstable beta, known as the IWBUMS (I Will Back Up My Save) branch – so the community can test it, and help out by reporting bugs. Some public builds have arrived after three months, others with bigger features have taken more than six. Many consider our game frequently updated, some consider us slow. We have a reputation that seems to diverge greatly when it comes to update frequency depending on who you ask. If a blog is fairly dry they’ll sometimes only be posted on our website, but we've had this unbroken chain of ‘doids for a long time and (although when milestones have been reached we may switch to doing them every two weeks) we certainly intend to continue them for the foreseeable future. These detail what we've been up to during the week, often with sneak peeks of upcoming features, interviews and videos.

We have weekly newsletters known as 'Thursdoids’ which we publish on our site and on Steam every Thursday. If you're not ready to jump in yet, then please consider us when we break out of Early Access. We hope you will join us, but if not we understand. It has grown massively over the years, and it’s been a rollercoaster, but we now find ourselves in a stable financial situation with an overall positive reaction from the Steam community. “Project Zomboid is a much more ambitious game than we could ever have hoped to fund ourselves.
