Bug fixes
- Fixed a long-standing skip bug we've been fighting for a while — skip would stop working after watching animations and wouldn't recover until reloading from the main menu. Finally tracked it down and squashed it
- Fixed animation audio being tied to the music volume slider — voiced animations now follow the voice volume slider, so you can mute music without losing animation audio
Gameplay improvements
- Skip now automatically detects scenes you've already completed — if you've played through a scene before, you can skip through it freely on replay. No workarounds needed
- First-time content is protected — skip only activates on scenes your save has already tracked as complete. We built it this way because with two episodes, 4,000+ images, and 500+ animations, there's a lot of content that's easy to accidentally skip past. We'd rather you see it all at least once
- Skip is never automatic — it only triggers when you hold Ctrl or press the skip button. If you're replaying a scene and want to experience it again in full, just play normally. Nothing gets skipped unless you tell it to
A quick thank you
These fixes came directly from players who took the time to report issues — in reviews, in discussions, and through our feedback form. Even the critical ones. Especially the critical ones. That's how the game gets better. We read everything, and this patch is proof.
