For What Will Come News

[h2]Please Note:[/h2]

I have push another batch of fixes and improvements, I don't want to make another page just for these fixes and improvements so I have decided to add it to the
update 2 patch notes. So go check out the additions below!

[h2]Hello Everyone![/h2]


Today I am happy to announce the biggest update to date, that brings forth some new features and improvements. These have been generally suggestion by all of you.

While there still may be problems or new ones at that, I look forward to hearing more feedback! With all that said below is what changed.


[h2]Summary of what is new[/h2]

I have heard a lot of feedback based solely on the ability to see where exactly you are aiming in terms of finding hit-boxes on interactables, I totally agreed and I have implemented a cross-hair in which will change upon hovering over items that can be interacted with. This should make it a lot easier to tell where you need to point the cursor.

There are now 7 more notes scattered around the game, that will help players get some more information about the background of the story. While they are few and far between, these will help clear up some confusion.

I noticed towards the end of the game there were less and less objectives pointing where to go, and while i though these would take the fun out of exploring the area, I noticed a lot of players relied on these and so I have added a decent bit more.

Another thing to note, is that I have toned down the bloom effects for some items, For example the phone in the house LED screen is quite bright/glows I have slightly turned bloom effects down. It might not be different for the phone it was helpful for some other areas of the game

Some more feedback I heard from players was that the notes were hard to read in some areas of the game, I have only noticed two areas in which that was the case, so I changed the lighting and made it face away from the sun. The Font also changed to more clear black

When saving the game and reloading the game, the voice lines all came back and would replay themselves. From what I have tested this works fully, but I have also seen sometimes where it won't. If this happens just let me know.

There is a lot more I have done, this is just a quick view at some of them, below is the full change log.

[h2]Hey All![/h2]

I have received reports of some people not seeing the ending cutscene where it soft locks you out. I personally haven't run into this issue on my end, so the fix isn't as straight forward. From the test I have been running it works fine. This update I switched some coding around so maybe it fixed it

Fixed: Interactables now will only play the voiceline once
Fixed: Grammar issues on some interactables
Added: Some clues to certain tasks

If you run into any other issues, please be sure to let me know, either in the Discord or on Steam Discussions!

[h3]Welcome Home![/h3]

Really small update here to fix some major issues, there might still be small ones after this, just bear with me.

[h3]What's Fixed?[/h3]


Fixed: Replaced pre-rendered cut scenes with Real-Time ones + fixed issue with them not showing correctly
Fixed: Issue causing incorrect collisions
Fixed: Issue causing house door to open slowly
Fixed: Issue causing game to load slowly
Fixed: Many more smaller issues


Overall, like I said quick small update sorry for the issues it has caused. If you run into anymore bugs be sure to report them to me via Discord or Steam Discussions.

Note: you might need to replay the game depending on what you missed or got glitched on

Thanks for bearing with me!

Hey all!

It has come to my attention that some people may experience performance issues and that greatly saddens me, however if you haven't tried changing settings please follow the steps below. I understand most people know all this, but this is just from my own testing experience and what I know seems to cause better performance.

[h2]Steps to potentially help performance[/h2]

1. Make use your graphics drivers are up to date
Personally I install the drivers from online, but you can also do the GUI version using Geforce Experience or AMD software. You would need to search for the drivers for that specific graphics card you have, AMD Drivers and Support | AMD or Official Drivers | NVIDIA.

2. Try to turn shadows down to Medium/High

Press “ESC” or “P” Key, navigate to “Settings” then “Graphics”

Look for Shadows

Switch them to medium or high (or whatever works for you)

Note: Should be the first thing to try, these are performance intensive, older graphics cards might benefit from this

3. Reducing the display resolution and setting display mode to windowed

Next look for Display Mode and Resolution

Switching them to windowed and lowering resolution may provide a smaller screen size but this would greatly increase the performance while having all the settings max or whatever you so desire them to be

4. If all else fails, and although not recommended, reduce Resolution Scale

Next look for Resolution Scale

Turning this setting down, isn't recommended as it will make the game blurry. If you need to use this option use between 70-90 for starters

5. Also, if you can’t run the game with just those settings above, you can try turning everything under “Texture Settings” and “Graphic Settings” categories to off or low (just tweak if needed)

Note: Game will look considerably worse but at least you can play it
If these steps don’t help, then I can’t really do anything about that. I am working hard to optimizing the game better, but for the time being please bear with me, I am sorry.
