Hello, this is Jun, the creator of YAKG! Some players have reached out about having strange issues with playing YAKG after allowing Steam to auto-update them to Version 1.1. Issues include--but are probably not limited to--seeing an error message when starting a "New Game", getting soft-locked in a branching decision for Part 2, seeing incorrect progress in the "Status" screen, and being unable to access Part 1 investigations due to "New Game" not correctly resetting progress. These are issues likely caused by Steam's automatic updater only updating game files that it perceives to have changes. So the TL;DR solution:

PLEASE UNINSTALL THE GAME, THEN RE-INSTALL IT

• New Sprites section added to Gallery (unlocked after clearing the game!)
• Made it easier to notice if you are on track to unlock the final Background in the Gallery
• Updated the post-credits text after certain Endings to give more specific hints
• Updated the names in the credits
• Made it easier to notice how to skip the credits (just try to advance dialogue!)
• Small corrections made to several portrait sprites, several background images, and one music track
• Adjusted positioning for 1 Clue in a mid-game Investigation to match its updated background art
• Minor text corrections and script updates

**SCROLL TO BOTTOM FOR WARNING ABOUT SAVE DATA** Hello, this is Jun, the creator of YAKG! Thank you all for the amazing launch of "Yet Another Killing Game"! The dev team and I were so thrilled by the reception that we voluntarily did another round of tweaks, improving artwork, music, and the in-game hints that lead you to the TRUTH!
A major update of V1.1 is a new "Sprites" section in the Gallery! Once you clear the full game, you can browse through every character sprite that appears in the game. The background is set to a greenscreen in hopes that our more creative fans will screenshot and edit together their own creations with the YAKG characters~ (And share it with us if you do!) Here are the full update notes! V1.1

Hello, this is sleep-deprived Jun Kakeru! Thank you to everyone who checked out YAKG's D1.0.0 demo! I watched as many playthrough streams and videos as I could, and ended up watching at least two people run into a pretty damning bug so... 3 DAYS LATER, here's a 1.1.0 update that not only fixes that bug, but also adds some new...EVERYTHING to be honest! We had no choice but to also include some new UI, tutorials, and point-and-click dialogue that already got merged into the project, is why. Here's the official update notes: D1.1.0

• FIXED A BUG for a certain name entry section where the player is unable to use the "L" key without opening the Log instead
• Added button help UI to the screen corner when playing on gamepad/controller
• Added and updated pop-up tutorials to better communicate controls and game flow
• The "Gather your thoughts" text will now be more accurate to the actions you've already taken
• Updated some backgrounds with refined artwork
• Added some NEW points of interest and related dialogue for the Investigations in Kitchen, Dining Room, and Master Bedroom
• Various typo fixes, visual/audio effects adjustments, and other minor edits
