Hello everyone! This patch focuses on fixes for story playback, character presentation, saves, and Steam Workshop features, along with several interface and usability improvements.
Added mouse-wheel story navigation:
Scroll down to continue.
Scroll up to go back.
Scrolling inside text fields, settings, dialogue history, and other scrollable areas will no longer change the story by mistake.
Fixed dialogue history sometimes showing both correct and incorrect branches. It now records only the path you actually played.
Fixed custom player forms of address sometimes being ignored during Raise Hand questions.
Failed story generation attempts no longer consume the corresponding usage.
The ending screen and share poster now use the background from the current story.
Shortened the character blur duration after taking a hit in the minigame for more responsive feedback.
Added controls for adjusting a character sprite’s position and size.
New characters can now be previewed and adjusted before creation.
Existing characters can also be adjusted at any time.
Character layouts are preserved locally, in saves, and through Steam Workshop data.
Fixed the default background or default sprite not appearing in the layout preview.
Fixed an occasional missing-file error when publishing a new Workshop character too quickly.
Fixed characters failing to upload again after their previous Workshop item had been deleted.
Added JPG support for character images.
Removed the file-size limit for character images.
Character reference audio files up to 2 MB are now supported.
Local saves in the Steam version no longer have a fixed maximum count.
Removed the outdated “maximum 100” display from the save page.
Simplified the information displayed at the top of the save page.
Saves can now be renamed:
Click the pencil button on a save card.
Or double-click the save title.
Improved save synchronization with Steam Cloud.
Free players on Steam can use Raise Hand up to 30 times per day.
Failed questions do not consume a use.
Fixed the “A Little Courage” achievement not unlocking correctly.
Reviewed and improved the trigger logic for other Steam achievements.
Added a fullscreen toggle to Settings.
Press Esc to leave fullscreen mode.
The fullscreen toggle now updates automatically to reflect the current state.
Added related Chinese, English, Japanese, and Russian text.
Adjusted the first-launch flow so language selection now appears after the welcome notice.
Fixed an unnecessary visible scrollbar on the language selection screen.
Updated the WeChat group QR code.
Improved the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service pages in the Steam version.
In some stories, later chapters may suddenly drift away from the source material and begin discussing unrelated topics such as deep learning. We have confirmed the issue and are currently investigating the story-generation and context-continuity logic. The fix needs a little more time and testing. Thank you for your patience.
Custom API support is temporarily unavailable due to Steam compliance requirements. We are adjusting the feature and plan to restore it in the next minor update after the compliance work is complete. Timing remains subject to Steam review.
Thank you for all your feedback and support! If you still encounter problems after updating, please let us know through the Steam Community.
