addedNew Basque, European Spanish and Traditional Chinese translations, along with revisions to previous translations
changedQOL updates like you can now knock on a door many times to proceed through a certain section faster (though you can still wait like previously), changing it so that you can only input numbers into the telephone, and other puzzle revisions
fixedFor a bit of a personal story, I actually quit my job to become a full-time indie game dev starting this April, and a big part of why I could do that was because of this game… This game is made just by me and the composer who wrote the music, along with the translators who helped make it possible for more people to play in different languages. (Sometimes I get emails addressed to ‘your company’ or ‘the npckc team’ but literally it’s just me in my living room making games on a laptop that overheats playing videos…)
changedSo I just wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to everyone who’s played this game - it’s changed the course of my life and it’s just been really exciting for me seeing so many people enjoy it across the world just playing on their own or with friends or streaming to share with others!

Better Steam Deck support (*However, please note that because of the way the game plays Steam Deck is not really recommended!)
A couple of silly extras because that’s what anniversaries are for right? (Check OPTIONS…)
