Hey all!
We’ve been radio silent for a while now, but we haven’t been slacking off! This patch brings a mix of important fixes, quality-of-life polish, and new content. Enjoy!
Fixes
Fixed issue where Hi-Fi could be used during blackout
Fixed (removed) the ability to open containers in Ellie’s room (players could soft lock the game by adding key items in those containers)
Fixed teleportation issue – the character was teleporting in the Hallway instead of the Golden Room after being killed by Mr. Blob
Fixed Mawie Level 3 Gate issue – the gate trigger would remain open after dying and resetting the game
Fixed Mawie enemy bee behavior – bee now resets properly after dying and resetting the game
German localization fixes – special thanks to Markus “Das M” N for going the extra mile in helping us resolve localization issues and providing additional QA!
Improved PC windows interaction
Fridge Interaction (off-putting smell) polish – new animations, new text, and improved flow
Added Doll Jingle Note to Tina Doll when inspecting her in the Tea Room near the piano (previously the doll jingle would not trigger after the kids’ disappearance, causing confusion)
Tina plays the secret Sound event when you don't have her in your inventory
Added notification that half of a modular key is added to the inventory when spare keys are inspected
Added confirmation before Ivan confrontation – players are now asked if they want to enter the final confrontation
Added Tina sound when entering a secret zone - she will laugh to let you know you can inspect her or drop her
Added “Hole in the Wall” Tina secret notification
Content

This mechanic works in conjunction with the Cobwebs mechanic.

Cobwebs can appear in specific locations within the house and may cover entire entrances. These need to be burned in order to progress.
✨Steam Achievements
We’ve added the first round of achievements to the game!
Note: A number of achievements are still not yet implemented. They will appear in Steam as “7 hidden achievements remaining” and will be added in a future update.
