addedA leaflet was added with some information about suicide in the year 2017 (the year in which the game takes place) and reinforcing information about seeking help. - Most decoration items can now be held and have a simple description. - Added a "Trigger" warning and also an option to skip the suicide scene, going directly to chapter 2. - Bug fixes.
changedThe "time" of some events has been improved a bit. - Bug fixes.
addedAn extra part of the map has been added that will open after the first part of the dialogue with the "Entity". This way the player can walk around while the rest of the dialogue takes place and also get a better sense of the "greatness" of this character. - Bug fixes.
addedA giant skull has been added at the end of the map to reference an important character in the next chapter. - Bug fixes.

There were some changes in all chapters:

In Chapter 1:

  • A leaflet was added with some information about suicide in the year 2017 (the year in which the game takes place) and reinforcing information about seeking help. - Most decoration items can now be held and have a simple description. - Added a "Trigger" warning and also an option to skip the suicide scene, going directly to chapter 2. - Bug fixes.

In Chapter 2:

  • The "time" of some events has been improved a bit. - Bug fixes.

In Chapter 3:

  • An extra part of the map has been added that will open after the first part of the dialogue with the "Entity". This way the player can walk around while the rest of the dialogue takes place and also get a better sense of the "greatness" of this character. - Bug fixes.

In Chapter 4:

  • A giant skull has been added at the end of the map to reference an important character in the next chapter. - Bug fixes.

In Chapter 5:

  • Two more giant skulls have been added that contribute to the symbolism of the "Being of Many Names". - A warning leaflet has been added to the gate of the "Being of Many Names". - Another gate has been added that opens after the dialogue with the "Being of Many Names". - Bug fixes.

In Chapter 6:

  • Some decorative items have been added. - Bug fixes.

In Chapter 7:

  • An extra part of the map has been added, where Mateus travels through a small area that would be a kind of "limit" or "frontier" between the physical world and the Umbral before opening the "Cutscene" that already existed. - Bug fixes.

Known "Crash" problem:

  • On a small percentage of machines (approximately less than 10%) a "Crash" may be occurring when opening the game for the first time, but this does not usually occur more than 1 or 2 times. Just try opening the game a few more times. Please do not request a refund for "Crash" before trying this.

  • On some machines with RX580 video cards there is a crash at the beginning of chapter 6. I still haven't been able to find the reason for this problem on these cards.
