This is a special Christmas.
We apologize for not releasing the holiday version of our game on time. However, we have some good news to share.
- TKA's development team has grown, which will help us manage the workload better. New experienced members will allow us to focus more on designing interesting gameplay and content, improving the game's quality and development speed.
- A few weeks ago, I started modifying the code to implement NPC teammates. I then thought, why not go further and implement multiplayer co-op? This idea excites me because it allows for more fun gameplay. However, I realized that almost all game logic needs to be rewritten, which is a huge task. TKA was developed as a single-player game without considering network synchronization. After weighing the pros and cons, I decided it's worth doing. I plan to implement this feature gradually to avoid affecting the update cycle too much.
- The custom challenge map (MOD feature) was already completed but needs modification due to the reasons mentioned above. If we delay this, all custom map MODs will become invalid. So, I plan to enable the feature after adjusting the game mechanics code.
- The script for Chapter 2 is almost complete, and new scenes, zombies, characters, and actions are in production.
Once again, thank you all for your understanding and support.
Merry Christmas!

Definitely excited, still hoping for NPC teammates alongside co-op capabilities! Also, had an idea to improve colour grading for clothes. Maybe get an X and Y number value to get an accurate colour, or even an option to save colours we like? I was trying to go with a different colour outfits and found they were always all slightly off. :D
And again i say, thank you for your game. I bought this game from steam and i like it and I'm waiting for other updates. This game is one of my favourite.
Merry Christmas🎄🎅🌲🧑🎄 Thank you! I am waiting for new release/ Update. Please tell me when would it be ready or released? At least say approximately which date would be it be ready?
It's good to know that they're thinking about new game modes. However, one thing I've learned in my professional life is that the more things you do at the same time, the worse and slower the overall service becomes. The focus should be on finishing the single player mode and then implementing other modes.
Please make finishing the game priority before coop
Merry Christmas

Thank you for your passion and great work. Keep it up and merry Christmas to all!
Love the passion for the project and that the team has more people, although I’ve seen other projects change direction to multiplayer and fail due to higher technical requirements without major benefits. I believe that The Killing Antidote has great potential as a new Survival Horror experience and solo is the way to go. RE4 works as a solo but RE5 works as a coop action game (not survival horror). My subjective opinion is to ask that you keep it Solo but it is your vision so do whatever you believe is best 👍❤️
Merry Christmas!
Merry christmas to all the team and thank you for the good news
Happy Christmas 🥰
The announcement of a coop mode in early development itself is a great Christmas present! Merry Christmas to the devs (both current and new ones coming in) and everyone!
Happy christmas, i am still waiting for new moves (jodi dance, motion etc)
A nice update for Christmas morning. Merry Christmas to all!
Gratz on getting more team members, and can't wait for all the new stuff to come! Merry Christmas!
If you must add Co-Op, please have an AI option. So solo players will have a complete way to play the game.
That would be awesome too even if just for the challenges.
Awesome news! Keep up the good work! Any ETA on the next update?
Merry Christmas to you too! Really looking forward to see what's coming. Do you think you can maybe make a creator account on another platform, like the one with the word "Boost" in its name? Sadly, I can't support you here via Patreon due to reasons out of my control. P.S. Is the picture AI?
Thank you for your hard work.
esperemos que sea divertido
Co-op dream come true also merry Christmas to all!
We are very pleased that your burden has been lightened. Please continue to develop game software without overexerting yourself. Happy Christmas!
