Changelog - 1.009Crashes & error pop-ups Fixed a crash that could happen while loading a save. Fixed error pop-ups when a gardener zombie tried to harvest a crop that was already gone. Fixed a freeze when assigning a zombie to a station if the previous worker was no longer valid. General fixesFixed the player or the HUD staying locked after returning to the main menu or starting a new game, including a cinematic or a fight that never cleared. Fixed the day not rolling over when the clock landed exactly on the end of the day. This showed up as a day jump in the quests UI after a sermon. Slightly expanded scenes so they are no longer cut off on widescreen monitors. Softlocks & collisions Fixed getting stuck after upgrading the nun's base. You are moved clear of the building when the upgrade finishes. Cleaned up collisions on conveyor storage, the crematorium, the resurrection table, and the garden and vineyard assistant stations. The box carried overhead no longer blocks movement. Fixed the interaction point on the locked tower gate. Fixed items from the sawhorse dropping in the wrong place. Zombies, farming & stations You can pick up or inspect a caretaker from their station while they are out working. Fixed caretakers getting stuck on quarry objects. Fixed zombies at the sawmill, mine, clay pit, and sand pit getting stuck after carrying the result back, so the next job can start. Fixed gardener zombies getting stuck on a broken harvest. They return to the station, and a harvest that keeps failing is left for you. Garden and vineyard workers no longer keep a hat on while…

The developers post roughly every 7 days and were last heard 10 days ago — within their normal range. 7 substantial updates recorded in the past six months, 2 classified as major.
Last successful news check: Nov 4, 2026, 2:03 PM UTC. This is when we checked Steam, separate from when the developer last posted.
Lazy Squirrel's follow-up to its cult gravekeeping sim has received patch 1.007, a wide-ranging fix pass assembled largely from player-submitted reports. The update touches crashes, movement bugs, crafting systems, farming, and UI — a scope that suggests the game's post-launch period has been active on both sides of the feedback loop.
What changed
Crashes & stability
Fixed repeated exception/error pop-ups that could break a session
Fixed a crash when a zombie caretaker attempted to pick up items from inventory
Exploits & items
Closed item-duplication exploits, including bag-to-bag transfers and alchemy/farmer bag abuse
Dynamite can now be destroyed or sold
Crafting & workstations
Study table now correctly awards science points; previously unstudiable items addressed
Potter's wheel no longer gets stuck on Craft, and can now be destroyed
Polished stone is obtainable again
Tempering Expert perk correctly grants its Mastery bonus and unlocks Master Armor and sword crafting
Movement & collision
Fixed getting stuck on pier stairs and on a hatch with a workbench placed over it
Fixed being wedged between workstations, chests, and extensions when pushed by a zombie
Cleaned up collision issues in the first section of Town
Farming, graphics & UI
Fixed inability to harvest the bush near the factory entrance
Player's head no longer disappears while planting
Clay storage now reflects its actual fill level visually
Fixed mixed-up draw layers on the conveyor supplier station
Placeholder text replaced by the correct character name "Jully"
Performance
Fixed severe FPS drops — down to approximately 2 FPS — when saving
Taken together, the patch should make routine play considerably more stable, particularly for players who leaned on crafting progression or encountered the save-induced slowdown.

Graveyard Keeper 2 Update 1.008 Tackles Crashes, Softlocks, and a Stubborn Zombie
Tinyxsarion's Update 1.008 for Graveyard Keeper 2 lands as a wide-ranging corrective patch, touching nearly every layer of the game without introducing new content.
What changed
Crashes & stability
Fixed a crash when going to bed that could throw the player out of bounds.
Resolved an infinite load screen triggered by a conveyor-related exception on save load.
Suppressed persistent error pop-ups that would keep reappearing during play.
Softlocks & collision
Cleaned up a collision issue on the right side of the workyard.
Fixed clipping and stuck states in the Town Warehouse and vine cellar.
Resolved two quest softlocks: one tied to the Inflation/mercenary quest (which also locked a garden plot) and one in the main questline when completing Linda's Ball before the Plague Doctor's sequence.
Combat & exploits
Fast Travel Points can no longer be used mid-battle.
The zombie Panic debuff now correctly triggers when the zombie cap is exceeded.
Placeholder text fight_start_overhead_reason no longer appears at combat start.
Zombies, farming & crafting
Fixed a zombie stuck attempting to retrieve items from the firewood holder.
Corrected wheat visually following the player while farmers failed to produce.
The Sommelier perk now correctly boosts wine crafting.
Fixed the PR machine running shorter than its stated duration.
Corrected misleading requirement text in the distiller craft tooltip.
UI & inventory
Items such as compost no longer teleport into inventory from a distance when a slot opens.
Clay storage now displays correctly when more than half full.
Save slots show current data and the correct happiness icon.
Several study table and folio interface fixes improve readability.
For players who hit progress walls or unexplained crashes, 1.008 removes a meaningful number of the obstacles that had accumulated since launch.
