💜 v0.4.5

💙 v0.4.5 (+ CHEATS)

🧡 v0.4.5 (+ CHEATS, SECRET STORE)

Starting this year with a brand new release! Hope you had amazing holidays while we were busy crunching on this build 😥😅

But don’t think we’re complaining—we’re quite proud of this one! Because this time the gap between updates ended up way shorter than before. We managed to spend less time on this build’s development while also packing in more content!

And that’s all while the project has been going through quite a few big positive changes behind the scenes.

This time around, we shifted our focus to better organizing the project and it made our work feel less chaotic. It’s necessary… but quite boring, so I won’t dive into details.

Thus, in this build we may not have fixed all the bugs you reported because of this priorities’ shift. But don’t worry—nothing got missed. Because meticulously cataloging all the game’s issues was also a part of this change. 🤓

Hopefully, as we improve our project structuring further, we’ll keep up with the tendency of rolling out shorter yet more frequent updates.

All in all, the main highlights of this update are: the addition of the Day 5 of the prologue with its activities on the new Mall location, a new fantasy-style gloor scene and the Day 3 day rework, which focuses more on the survival and offers more challenge.

Thanks to our amazing testers too, who helped us hunt down the bugs in the latest test build!
