We've been hard at work trying to squash the nastiest bugs in the demo and make the overall experience a bit more stable. If you continue to have issues, please submit a bug report via the in-game link or join our discord to talk to us directly!

Fixes

• Settings and preferences should be saved between game sessions now.
• Community events should no longer be executable during the end of day summary.
• Community events should no longer get stuck on the fade-to-black transition.
• The camera should add and remove targets properly.
• Saving and loading should be more stable now.
• Dogs should eat and drink without issue now.
• Visitors should leave when adoptions end.
• Visitors shouldn't get stuck on evaluating the first dog anymore.
• All visitors should be interactable now.
• Using the reset player button should work in any scene with the player now.
• Moved the euthanasia option to the new game menu so that no one misses the option to toggle it off.
• The daily timer should no longer continue into the negative without triggering the summary sequence.
• You can return to the main menu from character selection.
• General stability improvements to mitigate issues that we have been unable to recreate.

Workarounds

• Clear prior save files if you are continuing to have issues.
• Try completely closing and reopening the game before starting a new game if they are having issues.
• Camera stuck in some instances. Added a button in the menu to reset camera which should fix offset camera and black screen issues.
• If the dogs start to do "the wave" and stop eating/drinking go to the shelter construction and click the "checkout" button. Don't ask why, but it works!
• If the player gets stuck, look for the "reset position" button from the pause menu
