Features

  • I wasn't really happy with how Gazetteer.txt worked, so I replaced it with the Directory. It comes pre-loaded as an app on your PDA, making it a bit easier to find your way around Tokyo.

Improvements

  • Keywords in text files are now highlighted in yellow.

  • CRT filter is on by default.

  • Money and stamina labels added to dashboard.

  • Added the Marunouchi subway line, and some new stations on the Chiyoda, Chuo-Sobu, and Oedo lines.

  • Disabled some unachievable achievements.

Bug fixes

  • Made sure player starts with some money if continuing direct from tutorial.

  • Fixed bug where station evidence wouldn’t trigger if player arrived by train.

  • Fixed duplicate postcards in Browse after finishing demo.

  • Tweaked possibly confusing action for Koyo-kan.

  • Slightly more generous clickable area when designating Ueno Station entrance.

  • Trying to get to the location you are already at displays a suitable message.
