This is a post for casually sharing daily work logs and keeping track of the project’s progress.

Game becomes unresponsive on exit

Checked through various methods but could not find the cause

  • No multithreading issues

  • No coroutine issues

  • Tried Application.wantsToQuit, same behavior

  • Not caused by Time.timeScale

Reproduction of the issue:

Case 1: In lobby, force quit (Alt+F4) or button exit (Application.Quit) works ✅

Case 2: Lobby → In-game, force quit works ✅

Case 3: Lobby → In-game → Pause UI open, force quit or button exit unresponsive 🚫

Case 4: Lobby → In-game → Pause UI → Return to lobby, force quit or button exit unresponsive 🚫

Case 5: Lobby → In-game → Pause UI → Close UI, force quit works ✅

Case 6: Lobby → In-game → Pause UI → Return to lobby → Back in-game → Open UI, force quit or button exit unresponsive 🚫

Temporary workaround / solution:

Added AppTerminator
to fix the issue.

Note: This bypasses Unity engine’s normal shutdown logic and forces immediate termination, so other side effects may occur (use as a last resort).

An Electric Scooter Was Actually a Zombie-Killer Chariot

Who ever said an electric scooter was just transportation? Once it’s in Grandma’s hands, it’s already a chariot.
Her knees might hurt, but her wrists are strong! The sight of Grandma mowing down hordes of zombies on her scooter was so intense, I just had to include it.
Now the zombies have to avoid Grandma, not tanks!!

We finally announce the demo version of our game that we have been developing with sincerity.

This game started from the small idea, "a grandma with a chainsaw fights zombies." Then, seniors who lived eventful lives as killers, magical girls, and war veterans gather at a nursing home and form the "Senior Survival Club" in a zombie apocalypse! It is about the journey of the killer grandma among them to find her precious grandson.

In this demo, you can try 3 characters full of personality, 2 stages, and special weapons and equipment with their own stories.

Because it is a demo in an early development stage, there can be lacking parts, bugs, and balance that needs improvement. We will consistently update and make a better game based on your feedback.

If you played the demo enjoyably, it will be a great strength to us if you add it to the Steam Wishlist. We are waiting for your valuable feedback. We will be thankful if you freely give us your opinions through the Steam discussion board.

Go to demo : https://store.steampowered.com/app/3690370/Senior_Survival_Club/
Notice : https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3690370?emclan=103582791475306453&emgid=530986717166963250

Can you survive as an old man?
Survive with five elderly people in a zombie apocalypse world. They were spending the rest of their lives quietly in a nursing home, but they have a colorful past that no one knew about. They might have been a killer, a war veteran, a police officer, or even a magical girl or a mechanic for the Earth Defense Force.…

We created the zombies that will appear in the new stage.

This stage is a research lab. Yes, they are zombies who used to be scientists. They looked like zombies even even when they were scientists, but now they are definitely zombies.
Will they be a real threat to our killer grandma? No, she will take care of all of them.

Watching these scientist zombies felt like looking at ourselves while developing. Haha!

If you are curious about our killer grandma, here is the link.
