Fine Work: Act I | Update v1.1.1

view Read the full patch notes here! We pushed several new features and bug fixes in our v1.1.1 update!

Including:

We moved the player character nameplate to the right side of the screen during dialogue, which helps make it clear who is speaking.
We've added some default terms to the notebook to help new sendshapers better understand the world.
We've smoothed out the audio transition between pausing and resuming the visual novel.
Shapers can now calibrate the tempo from the settings menu inside of the visual novel.
We've smoothed out the start button function for controller users, making it easier to enter and exit menus.

Thank you, as always, for supporting us! We hope to see you tomorrow!

Stay Vivid,

Tethys Games
