Hello, everyone. We are SUNNY SIDE UP, development team of Little Witch in the Wood.
This update will proceed from the existing build, not the beta build.
(The beta build will be deactivated and cannot proceed. Regardless of your previous build version, you will be able to play the latest version after the update.)
The update will bring many changes to existing features and content, and add new ones.
The current save files will no longer be usable due to compatibility issues.
We are terribly sorry for any inconvenience brought to your gaming experience.
Starting from this update, we will keep the save files and continue to manage them. We will try our best to prevent such a problem from happening again.
