Hi SLAVS!!!
Finally, we can bring you some news and NEW CONTENT.
MAIN NEWS : a COMPLETELY FREE NEW MISSION — "SLAVS IN AMERICA", which continues the storyline of the main campaign. We're diving headfirst into our patented brand of insanity and sending the Rus brothers to the Slavic States of America to finally settle the long-standing issue with the PEACEDEAL between rus and lizards. You'll face 2 new reused animations bosses, along with brand-new explosive dialogues and battles! The mission unlocks immediately after the previous one, "Yashurmor" (which you can also play if you somehow missed it).
Moreover, LIZARDS MUST DIE 2 is now available on consoles! Happy PS and Xbox owners who have been waiting for two whole years for a chance to play since PC release in 2025, HERE IT IS. Go ahead and ENJOY THE MASTERPEACE!
We've named all this content as LIZARDS MUST DIE FULL PACK FULL GOYDA TURBO COMPLETE EDITION and released a ULTRA-FASHIONABLE TRAILER.
Watch on YouTube
And SHOCKING CONTENT: some bugs have actually been fixed:
Improved gamepad controls
Improved lighting
Fixed extra markers appearing on locations
Fixed the bug where lizards would get stuck on the FACTORY level (Yes. Yes, only now.)
And a whole bunch of other little things
And, of course, our beloved PC players are getting yet another SALE to celebrate the occasion. If any of you cheapskates still haven't bought the game, NOW IS THE TIME!

Dear meowworkers! Whoever gets up early goes to the factory!

We, the developers from the indie studio Smola (known for the Lizards Must Die game series), are pleased to present to your attention our new small project - MeowFactory! We've been actively developing it for the last six months, and we finally have something to share!
Watch on YouTube
It's time to pay attention to the really important and eternal thing - the FACTORY. We decided to mix Factorio, Sims and Overcooked together, and it WORKS. Accept a workshop where your employees will be CATS who behave like CATS.
In the not-so-distant future, after a nuclear and climate disaster, humans have completely surrendered control of the planet to an AI government, leading to the collapse of human civilization. Plants have been destroyed, and humans have lost both the skills and the desire to work in industrial enterprises, bringing everyone to the brink of starvation.
However, there is a solution! The Meow-X Corporation presents a new concept for survival: MeowFactory! Instead of humans, it is the cats who will take on all the production responsibilities! As the head of the facility, it is up to you to lead and train them! Just remember, it is not as simple as it may seem.
Build magnificent factories and automate production lines to meet the needs of the lazy humans!
Work with limited space, as each factory presents a challenge not only in terms of decision making speed, but also in terms of ingenuity and planning.
Assemble the most cohesive team of factory cats! Or at least prevent the fluffy demons from destroying the production lines.Your meoworkers behave literally like cats: they play with boxes, eat directly from the conveyor belt, fight with each other and catch mice. Keep an eye on them and rescue them from their tricky situations in time.
Cats have needs! Monitor their mood, satisfaction with their working conditions, and their pay. Otherwise, the cats will blow up, drown in mud, or burn down everything you've built, or at least turn your clean factory into a cat's hell brach.

A THOUSAND APOLOGIES that we've been missing for a long time, but we've been missing for a reason, the work is in full swing. Finally, we can come back to YOU, BROTHERS, with the news from our studio.
Right today, the game has released a content addition for the game Russ vs Lizards 2.
The full list of updates can be found below:
"WAVE" MODE. A new level of "HYPERBOREA", which can be completed alone or with friends. Repel the attack of hundreds of lizards in the "Challenge" mode.
LEADERBOARDS for wave mode. Now you can not only kill crowds of lizards, but also compete with OTHER PLAYERS to see who made it COOLER.
A new opponent is the Fire Lizard officer. A mini boss designed to diversify your game in old locations and on a new map for WAVE mode.
Improvements:
Hub updates. Now you can summon more opponents in the ARENA in the hub
Treatment and mana recovery have also become available for the Hub
Improved lighting in various locations
Fixing the Stuck Lizards
Other minor bug fixes
We would also like to share with you further updates for the game. We have already prepared a NEW MAP and a NEW CHARACTER for you, we are rolling and testing them at the moment. The release is scheduled for this fall!
And finally, our studio, SMOLA GAMES (aka theBratans), is not only slowly working on the second part and thinking HARD about what to do next with the game's universe, but is also busy working on a SMALL project unrelated to Rus and Lizards, which we also hope to announce this fall.
GOOD LUCK, brothers!

Brothers, we have came upwith the first hotfix and we continue to work on issues:
Lizards falling underground bug fixes

Now they fall less often, and if they fall, they die.
At the Baikal level, they should stop falling underground altogether, checked on several devices.
Red screen on laptops with integrated or missing graphics cards

Go to settings, click video settings, click FIX RED SCREEN
Who doesn't have this problem, DON'T CLICK
Game crashes almost immediately after launch

If the graphics card is from NVIDIA, then you need to check if FSR is enabled in the settings, if the card is from AMD, then you need to turn off DLSS.
It can also help to run the game in windowed mode, if the point above does not help.
Connecting to an online game

Added regions. Now it is better to choose a region by location (Europe, Asia, America, China).
Unfortunately, our network engine is not native, NOT OURS, so it's the hardest to fight with it. If you can't connect for more than a minute, you can try closing the game and run it again, which usually helps.
If the above methods do not help, you can go to the multiplayer-europe branch, the guide is in discussion panel on Steam.
Some Internet service providers may still have problems logging out of the coop mode.
Other changes and improvements:

At the Baikal level, you can now ride in Hardcore cart mode
Dynamite no longer causes damage toheroes
The tank's health has been slightly reduced
The brightness slider is now working
Fixed a bug with the choice of characters after the cutscene with pyaterochka
Fixed a bug with Mstislav's scarecrow (it no longer remains in the hand when dying and taking damage).
If any other bugs occurs, write us, we will be in touch!
