Hey all!

It’s time for another update for Midnight Special!

This one focuses mostly on fixing issues, polishing existing content, and addressing a few more serious problems that slipped past us.

First up, here are the new features:

Juke Box Player

• Jukebox – You can now add and play vinyls you find in the game at any time

• 1 new song added: "Loaded Gun", alongside a band bio and album art

• Added the ability to sit in the beanbag and listen to music (new animations)

• Added a sound snapshot that muffles the music when outside the Rumpus Room

• The Reload Perk is still disabled until the Weapon Update

Family Portrait (Close-Up)

• The portrait now changes dynamically based on the player's actions (e.g., finding the shotgun, the necklace, as well as sanity—all are reflected in the close-up)

• This close-up is active when the kids and Jon Sr. are missing from the portrait, and only Shelly is visible

And now, the issues (bolded = serious issues that affected gameplay):

• Simplified Kitchen Fridge Interaction - Player no longer needs to use the lighter to trigger the Henry Sequence

• Added snapback to organ pieces in the organ puzzle, ensuring they don't get stuck

• Fixed guest room trigger that required the player to walk in order to trigger the Void scripted event

• Fixed issue where having the lighter on while the run prompt appears would softlock the game

• Fixed issue where the player could not run after dying/game over in Mawie

• Fixed/removed the ability to drop Tina (the doll) in puzzles and closeups

• Fixed issue where connecting a controller would make the game mouse stop functioning

• Fixed logic puzzle issue where picking up an organ puzzle piece and placing it into a drawer would cause the organ puzzle to softlock

• Fixed mouse teleport issue after placing cheese

• Computer UI localization supplement

• Fixed Tina teleport issue

• Fixed Sarah teleport issue that caused duplication of dialogue/waking up on the couch twice

• Fixed dialogue duplication (interacting with TV and then loading a game save)

Thank you all so much for your patience and support. Feel free to join our Discord or post on the community forums with any issues or questions you may have.
