In a land far far away... evil has spawned from the *deep*... yeah you know what this is...
If you've paid the 10 bucks it costs you are ready to play it (if not click here).
Launch the game right now and it will auto-update.
Run KAG and login at least once, open the Solo menu and select "Zombie Fortress".
Wait for the night to come and be prepared for all hell to break loose...
We've been holding this release for a long time, trying to iron out everything. It's still not all ironed out and IT'S NOT FINISHED, we have a whole bunch of stuff waiting to be done more in this mode. But it's gotten to the stage where we just really want to show it to you guys.
Before you get too exited, zombies multiplayer doesn't work yet. Trust me, we've tried to get this done and dusted (12-16 hour days for the last month) but it's going to take a while longer. Since we'll be off at GDC in San Francisco next week we've decided to give you guys access to the single player zombie fortress mode.Since you can't play with friends yet, we've added something called Party Mode to zombies - you can recruit migrants, control them and give them basic orders. We'll be expanding your control over party members in coming updates (go-to, gather resources orders, re-stock etc.).
Here's how the basics work in-game:
Basically hold down [R] for a Party Menu or tap it quickly to switch between party members. This patch, besides zombies, introduces a ton of other things we added for the free version of the game in CTF. So much has changed that we haven't kept a proper change-log. Here are some highlights:
Note that you need quarters for migrants to arrive and be recruitable!
Lanterns in full version (will work fully next patch).
Due to some security issues, localhosting wont work, and those on shared IPs wont be able to play at the same time. This really bugs us and we'll be fixing it ASAP, but it's better than the alternative (a nice big security hole).We're keen to see what exploits work (so we can sort out something to deal with them) and what ones dont (so we can laugh at the people who tried them) so we'll be watching the forums keenly.
We're not raising the price until the multiplayer is in to ensure noone feels cheated; that means KAG is still $9.99 for a limited time. To buy the Full Version of KAG (takes just 5 minutes;) ) go here.
Very big thanks to KAG admins, guards and testers! It wouldn't be possible without you.
Have fun!

I just bought the game, after playing the demo for as long as I can remember. I download it off the Desura website, because the download link on the program doesn't seem to do anything. I can't uninstall it or anything, to try to re download. Do I need to make a new account or what?
Nevermind, I had to use my CD key on my Kag2d.com profile. All's good!
If that is the case, then I feel like I've just wasted money. :( Plus, I've already used my E-Mail for my demo account.
you dont need a new account. Just use the "CD key" in your profile to turn your "demo" account into a full version account.
I just bought this epic game. even though there are no servers here in Asia, =( i still had fun on other servers(250-400ms). specially the CTF mode so fun! =) The zombie mode is kinda hard though XD but love the game! Hope everything on the planned features will be made. Good job on this game!
I just purchased this game, but I'm on a Mac and didn't realize the full version actually isn't available for Mac yet... Is there an ETA?
It is, just log into the game after activating your account. There is no difference in the binaries between full and free, you are buying an account.
Excellent, glad it isn't a bug our end (we've been trying to fix this for ages, with mixed results and ultimately no global resolution)
I realized it wasn't you guys when it happened with another game that used IrrKlang.
Cheers for looking into it :)
