Noir Syndrome Version 1.8 will be releasing later this week. Those of you who follow me may know that I've been working on a new game project lately. Therefore, this may be the last major update for a while. That's not to say I still won't watch the game closely, as I've done with all my past projects. Anyways, there will be more info on all of that later. This update is a big "roundup", in that it will smooth out a lot of things. Hit Contracts, new vendors, and fixes for every known bug in the game. I recommend checking out the full patch notes below! New Features: - New purchasable item: Hit Contract - Hit Contracts stop any current hitmen that are after the player - Hit Contracts also greatly reduce the chance of seeing another hitman for a while Gameplay Changes: - New vendor added to the Slums that sells Hit Contracts - New vendor added to the Department Store that sells food - New vendor added to the Mechanic Shop that sells lockpicks - All locations now have vendors and/or unique elements that are worth visiting for Fixes and Improvements: - Wiping out the entire town will prevent events that couldn't occur without people - As intended for Sandbox mode, you cannot gain progress for incremental badges - Previously Sandbox mode only prevented earning "one-time" badges - Job-related issues such as blank jobs and nameless NPCs have been fixed - Minor AI improvements - Various bug fixes
