It's great to be adding new features now, rather than just fixing bugs. Thanks to everyone for the nice comments - it's amazing to hear how many of you are enjoying the game! Thanks also for the bug reports - these are really important so we appreciate you taking the time to send them.

This is a summary of the last 5 patches, since we last did an announcement.

Patch notes, 1.172

• Load a game without exiting to main menu

• F8 now saves into a dedicated quicksave slot rather than over-writing the current ‘main’ save file

• You can now save over another save slot rather than having to save as new slot then delete old slot

• Added a label to draw attention to player-notes feature in journal

• You can now milk goats even if your character doesn’t specifically need goats milk right now

• Labelled the keyboard remapping controls more clearly

• Fixed the issue with the hole into the fever ward being gone in subsequent playthroughs
  

Patch notes, 1.173

• Fixed a bug that had dead Robyn taking part in the hide-and-seek game

• Added a door so that the guard at the east (slums) gate can let you through when the gate is locked (from chapter 3)

• Fixed bug that was causing various objects to be absent from the world on subsequent playthroughs (note: if you are currently playing a game with this problem already saved in its file, this won’t fix it- the bug was when a new game was started after exiting to menu from a previous game). If anyone is in a playthru and needs their save file fixing, please contact me in our Discord.
