A very large update for Volume 1 is here. You can read the details in the changelog below. Myself and my beta testing team have put a lot of hours into checking for problems, but no software is ever bug free. If you have any trouble or think you've found a bug or dreaded typo, please come over to my Discord and post a message.
A few of the biggest changes are finally getting consistent unlock of achievements on Macs, a big UI overhaul to make things easier to find and read through, notification banners to let you know about key events or results from your choices, a complete reworking of the music and sound effects to be better balanced, consistent, and unique to each of our lovely ladies, and you can adjust the font size for dialogue now in settings.

Old saves should still work fine, by the way, so no need to start over with a fresh playthrough. All these changes were made not only to fix issues and make some improvements, but also to get things ready for the next release of content. Four large chapters are coming on March 29. The store page for Volume 2 - Part 1 DLC is live, so go ahead and wishlist to be notified when it is available for purchase.
