The world of Project Zomboid is filled with references and easter eggs. Over in Louisville, you’ll find the Romero Center For Performing Arts, a clear nod to undead maestro George Romero. The presenter on Life and Living TV is named Dean, presumably after DayZ’s Dean Hall, and tucked away near Riverside is the Sunderland Hills Sanatorium, likely named for the imperiled protagonist of Silent Hill 2. But the latest Project Zomboid update brings to build 42 and to Knox Country a more meaningful homage in the form of a newly redesigned gun store.

We previously reported that Michael Shtudiner, co-creator of the Project Zomboid mod ‘Vanilla Firearms Expansion,’ and better known among the game’s community as ‘Stendo Clip,’ had died. Now, in the latest Project Zomboid update, survival game developer The Indie Stone has added a touching tribute to Shtudiner.

You might remember that in West Point, behind the GigaMart, there are two smaller buildings. One is a bar called Twiggy’s; the other is a gun shop. Until recently, it was simply named West Point Gun Range and Hunting Center. But now it has a new name. In honor of Shtudiner, the store has been redesigned and rebranded to Stendo’s Firearms Emporium.

“This is intended as a memorial to Stendo Clip who was the founding author of the Vanilla Firearms Expansion mod,” The Indie Stone says, “following conversation with – and permission from – family members.” Like any of Zomboid’s gun stores, you’ll need a sledgehammer to get into the main weapons locker. From the outside, however, the newly minted Stendo’s Firearms Emporium is considerably larger than its predecessor. It serves as a fitting tribute to one of Zomboid’s best-loved modders.

One of the co-creators of Vanilla Firearms Expansion, ‘Vilespring,’ says that they will continue to work on the mod, and that they have plans to release a new version that will work with Project Zomboid’s new build 42.
