Gameplay

• The Tutorial has been adjusted to better explain the functionality of the Bell to end the day in the Bar.

UI

• Controller Support has been improved for navigating the Notebook UI.
• Clicking the arrows in the tutorial windows has been made easier.

Writing

• A variety of typos and grammatical errors have been fixed. This is an ongoing process that continues as we receive feedback from users.

Bugs

• Fixed a bug where replaying the cutscene from the Notebook didn’t work.
• Fixed a bug where loading save files made during certain stages of the game could cause a softlock.
• Fixed a setting for the Camera that caused Post-Processing to look too harsh on ultrawide resolutions.
• Fixed a setting for the Camera that allowed the view to go out of bounds on Ultrawide monitors.
• Fixed a bug for Hugo where certain dialog does not appear in the Dialogue Log.
• Fixed a bug where text in buttons for dialog choices could overflow.
• Fixed an issue where text in the pop-up for clue unlocks was cut off in the Home Phase.

Known Issues

• We’re looking into an issue that may occur when mouse and controller input are simultaneously used. Until fixed, we recommend only using one or the other.
• Some save files from previous patches might not fully function anymore - apologies for this inconvenience. Hopefully our save system is now more robust.
