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
I sincerely hope those of you who were disappointed from being able to freely name a certain "little buddy" will play the updated version, load an old save file, and redo that name entry scene to re-prepare for the full release of YAKG! Hopefully no more demo updates will be needed until then since there's a ton of stuff to get ready before January, hahaha...
Take care of yourselves this holiday season,
