Welcome Back! - Posted: 05/27/08
• We're back online! Sorry for the down-time but it was largely unavoidable. Sooner or later we'd need to move to our own server and get out of the "Shared Hosting" scam! The DDoS attack just made that happen sooner rather than later. Please direct your attention to the Hell Rising FundRAZOR if you haven't already. Thank you for being a citizen!
Update - Posted: 03/23/08
• Thanks to some keen-minded survivors (who were promptly eaten), the Twilight City Power Plant is back up and running. Unfortunately, it seems to be a bit harder to maintain the power levels than one might like. (Note: Turning power on or off using the checkboxes takes 1 AP per neighborhood.)
Small Addition - Posted: 02/25/08
• The rise in gunfire, explosions, and screaming can only mean one thing. Another neighborhood has fallen and is now included in what seems to be the less and less effectively quarantined hot zone.
Small Update - Posted: 02/13/08
• The dead continue to evolve... or so it would seem. Zombies and vampires alike seem to have discovered the benefit of consuming things other than moving targets. (For zombies, this will require the Intellect skill.) With Valentine's day upon us, some may find dark humor somewhere within this new event.
Minor Change - Posted: 01/09/08
• A New Year in Twilight City, but there's not much cause for celebration. However, players will notice that healing themselves or others in a proper hospital building has a slight benefit over sewing up wounds in, say, the local steakhouse. (Plus the knives are probably cleaner.)
New Skill - Posted: 12/10/07
• The Human skill tree is now complete. "Power Tool Expertise" now gives a bonus for attacking with power tools. Now to finish up those pesky undead skills.
