Remember when I said the last update would probably be the final? Yeah, me either. Thanks to the efforts of the translation team Mehlate, a free Russian language option has been added for Highway Blossoms. To use it, please activate the beta branch of the game by navigating to Highway Blossoms in your Steam library, right-clicking the title, clicking "Properties" and choose the "betabuild" option from the Beta tab. Then, load the game and go into "Preferences" and choose "Russian" as your language. This translation was created by Mehlate and we're very grateful for their efforts. However, please be aware that neither Alienworks nor Sekai Project can guarantee its quality or accuracy. In addition, there is a known issue with Mac OSX Sierra and Ren'py games, which is the engine that we use. A fix is currently being developed, which we will implement when possible, though it's not included in this version of the build. Most likely, we'll set it to the beta branch when live, because it will once again corrupt saves. Hey, at least this (that?) time it won't be on us. Last but not least is something that I've forgotten to bring up for the past several updates: Alienworks has a public Discord server that everyone is welcome to join if you wanna chat with us, or other fans, or just lurk. As always, thanks for your support, and we hope you continue to enjoy Highway Blossoms.

However, please be aware that neither Alienworks nor Sekai Project can guarantee its quality or accuracy. For users with the Mac Sierra OS, it's important to activate the beta branch. Sierra brought with it a change that makes all games created on Ren'Py unplayable without a particular change. Please download the new build from the beta branch to fix that. Because it requires fundamentally altering the game engine, we can't promise save integrity. Hey, at least this time it won't be on us.

• At least tens of words, maybe even hundreds. Although the last word count puts it around 90,000, so expect 6 or so hours of reading.
  
• Grand, hand-painted vistas of actual landmarks in the western United States, all in glorious 1080p detail.
  
• A huge soundtrack featuring the works of Anna Logue, Jake Abernathie, Able Kirby, and other friends of AlienWorks. Sounds right at home on your in-dash cassette tape player.
  
• Accessibility options for days, including the ability to skip through everything in less than five minutes. But who would wanna do that?
  
• Achievements, although to be honest, they might be stretching the definition of "achievement."
  
• Alternate silly content for second readthroughs that AlienWorks let the programmer write. This may or may not have been a good idea.
