Citizen!

I should have gotten this update out the door a bit sooner, but we've been busy working on an announcement that I hope will delight and excite. Expect Chapter 6 related news very, very soon, dear friends…

In the meantime, this month's update mostly focuses on behind the scenes stuff and some tweaks to the end of Chapter 5. The changes we made to the dialogue system have now been fully implemented, and I don't expect I'll spend time on that moving forward.

Which is just as well, because things are about to get busy…

For those who think we're wasting time releasing these updates, I've added a question to the FAQ. It's at the bottom.

Here's the full patch contents:

• Game: Split asset file into smaller chunks
• Game: Reduced the game's memory footprint
• Chapter 1, 4 & 5: Tweaked living room background
• Chapter 1: Tweaked Edie dialogue
• Chapter 3: Fixed graphical glitch with coal chute hatch
• Chapter 4: Made some dialogue options undimmable
• Chapter 5: Color tweaked backgrounds
• Chapter 5: Fixed mob interaction
• Chapter 5: Added vampire dialogue
• Chapter 5: Clarified roof hole hint
• Chapter 5: Added end dialogue option with Willard
• Chapter 5: Tweaked end dialogue with Willard
• Chapter 5: Clarified Willard hint
• Demo: Updated demo

Don't be shy if you see something strange or buggy in the game.

Cheers,
