Hello scholars,
This update is called school shutdown, and it’s all about upping the challenge for masters of the game!

Game Over, Man

This is for the folks looking for a challenge. If you play on hard or custom mode, you will now get a game over if half your student population is sick or are delinquents, and if you get below -500 prestige. Play at your own risk!

Note: You will have to start a new game to see these features.

Ambulance

In line with the game over risks, we’ve added a way for you to call an ambulance in case your clinic is starting to get overrun and you need those students cured quickly!

Updated Routing UI

Micromanagers rejoice! We give you a more advanced routing mechanic, so you know what a good route is and what a bad route is (hint : longer routes need more staff). We hope you enjoy endlessly calibrating your routes.

Change Names

Something a lot of you have been asking for! You can now change the names of students and staff. Place your favorite teacher in the game or name the students after your high school buddies and crushes.

More Scenarios

We made 5 more scenarios to challenge you, including an entire school full of delinquents and sick children!

Students Complain Animation

Just a neat little animation that shows you your students are unhappy. It’s kind of cool how they break the fourth wall and literally signal at you to say something is wrong with your school.

New Music

We got some new music created by the inimitable Tyler Cline! Music will now change at different hours of the (in-game) day, at the custom school screen, at the end of year panel, and more!
