Update #6 - Patch 1.3.199

Hello renovators! 👷‍♂️

After a short break, we're back with exciting updates for Haunted House Renovator! 💥👻

This time it's not just the bug fixes. We're doing our best to make the game more approachable for everyone and this is our first line of changes that aim to achieve just that! Please let us know what you think of these changes either on the Steam forums or on our official Discord server!

Here's what's been fixed or added:

• Wallpaper widget redesigned for better clarity!

  

  Now all the options are easily accessible, without being tucked away behind buttons!

• Fixed an issue caused by swapping between wall panels and wall tiles.

• Ambient hauntings (like light switches turning off) now stop after banishing the Wraith — previously, they only stopped if you banished all hauntings.

• Brush and Scrubber merged into one tool.

  Dev note: We've combined these tools to make the game more approachable. Now the game automatically detects whether you're cleaning a flat surface or furniture. Let us know what you think, as we're considering a similar merge for the Toolbox and Wallpaper tool!

• Fixed an issue with the cat transporter.

• You no longer need to complete the note minigame in order to finish adopting a new pet.

  Dev comment: The minigame caused some confusion and didn't add enough fun, so we decided to remove it entirely.

• Removed broken wall segments.

  Dev comment: These rare damaged walls caused more issues than they were worth, so we’ve eliminated them.

• The gremlin no longer shuts doors behind it when running away from a player.

• Potential fix to the second key-crystal in the tutorial that didn't spawn for some players

• Sticky ghost (from the starting location's kitchen) can now be properly photographed and creates its own bestiary entry.

• Fixed an issue with the 'Like in old movies' and 'Phantom Detective' achievements sometimes not unlocking.

• Improved resolutions on some small objects.

• Added Cat Transporter to the Bait category in the Shop.

• Upgrade and crystal-braking tasks in the tutorial are now correctly listed as obligatory.

• Other small fixes.
