So like... remember when I said Cryptid Coffeehouse v3.0 was the final version of the game? Yeah, so, I LIED. Every time I try to put this game down, Artemis looks at me with big huge puppydog eyes and I'm like, "Erm.... well.... wait, but this one thing could be done..." It is today on November 15th, our sweet Artemis' birthday, that I graciously bring you all Cryptid Coffeehouse version 3.1, the true final version of the game. Genuinely, this is the version of the game Ive always wanted to share with you all, and Im so happy that I have the honor of bringing it to you all. With this update, the game now includes:

• Improved accessibility! I've updated the user interface to make it easier to find things and updated TTS/self-voicing support. Additionally, rollback has been enabled and a trusty little "back" button now lives on the quick menu!
• Bugs fixed and typos corrected! All of the weird little errors that have been brought to my attention and typos that have been spotted are now fixed! If any of you find any more let me know ;-) but I think Ive squashed most of the issues, allowing for a nice and clean play experience.
• A new character creation screen! Now, you no longer have to page through a bland choice menu of options to initialize your player character. It looks cute now! And it's functional! Yay!
• All new original Point Pleasant and System Five songs, text beeps, and sound effects! Thanks to the hard work of my awesome friend gnommen, the bands now have completely original songs. All characters have better text beeps, and all of the sound effects have been replaced with game-exclusive ones! With this sound update, all of the assets inside of cryptid coffeehouse are now original, made either by me or by friends Ive worked with. I'm so happy to have finally gotten here ;o;!!
• New supplemental images! You know how artemis talks about those polaroids with Diana when you sleep over at their house for the first time? How about when you ask them about the polaroids on their wall back in their childhood home? Yeah, well... those are illustrated now!! You can look at them!! They are so cute!!

Hello everyone! On this fine day, I bring great news: after almost two years of consistent development, the third and final version of Cryptid Coffeehouse has released! This is the version of the game that I always wanted to release to everyone, and I'm so happy that the day has finally come. This completely-realized build of the game features:

• 64,000 words of new story content! Not only do you have the opportunity to encounter three never-before-seen story events and meet several new characters, but scenes throughout the game have been edited and added to for a fuller experience! Playing through the game again is highly suggested ;-)
• all new art! All the character sprites, backgrounds, and CGs have been redesigned, revamped, and recurated. Everyone (and everything) looks much cuter now, trust me. There's some new stuff hidden in there too for you to find!
• a more accessible game interface! Within the settings screen, you're able to curate your play experience in an even better way. Toggle game brightness and contrast, adjust volumes of basically every noise and sound that plays, change font sizes and styles, and even toggle the opacity of the textbox.
• original music! Cryptid Coffeehouse v3.0 features a soundtrack composed by Mello Jupiter, and, by the gods, does it sound good.
• partial voice acting!! You can finally hear Artemis sweet talk you!!! And all the other characters speak too :-) You can find the full VA cast list in the about section of the game!
