HAPPY SAIN† SHEOL changes
We're pleased to announce that HAPPY SAIN† SHEOL version 1.3.0 is now live on Steam and should be pushed out to users.
As announced back on Halloween Day this year, this long awaited updated adds a long list of fixes and updates to both game content and the overall user experience.
Scenario Updates
A number of scenes have been more fleshed out to fix the overall flow of the story
Display errors in certain scenes, especially in novel mode, have been fixed
Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean text issues have been fixed
Graphics Updates
New illustrations have been added to the game. Creator and character designer, RaV², has improved their drawing skills in the year since this update was initially announced back in 2024. Many of them are spoilers though so unfortunately we can't show any of them off in this update!
In addition, nearly all existing illustrations have subtle updates and changes as well
UI/UX Updates
400x300 mini size display option has been added to the Settings menu
Tutorial screens have been added for users new to visual novels
Cheat Mode - One of the biggest updates to version 1.3.0 is the addition of a cheat mode which will allow you to unlock the various content in the game. While there is no penalty for enabling this mode, the game is best enjoyed without it ːsteamthumbsupː

Steam Achievements
As some users have already noticed, Steam Achievements are now available for HAPPY SAIN† SHEOL
For users that have cleared a number of endings prior to updating to version 1.3.0, the relevant achievements should unlock on startup
PLEASE NOTE: In the case that achievements do not unlock for the above case, persistent data may need to be deleted so it is recommended to have save states in scenes right before clearing an ending to save time
Other Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where Auto mode button does not work
Fixed an issue where clearing two specific endings after another would lead to an endless loop
Fixed an issue where clearing the game would not unlock the ability to change the title screen character graphic
