This update (by far the biggest so far) for Dagdrøm contains 200+ quality of life improvements, some big, some small! The biggest news is probably a Linux build, but there are new animations, a new hint book, new menus and 75+ changed dialogue options for making the game more intuitive.
I also made a new (and improved) walkthrough for the game which is available in the forums . Read below for a complete list of fixes and improvements.
