Hello! A fairly significant update today. First of all:
- Several location tag transitions have been fixed. This was a minor issue, but I'm sure a few of you noticed the wipe effect sometimes leaving the tag underneath. This happened when the tag switch command was placed before any dissolve commands, putting them in conflict. Now things should look a lot smoother!
- Patreon credits should now work properly and are fully up to date. Thank you for all your support.
Now I'm going to hand it over to Crushed, who cooked up some really exciting post-launch QoL changes.
This patch has a number of small but (probably) helpful quality-of-life improvements for readers.
UX Updates
Chapter Select
- Readers can now unlock chapters as they read through Misericorde Volume Two! If you've already finished reading, then nothing should change for you. If you're still reading when you update, then this should unlock the Chapter Select option on the main screen as soon as you hit the next chapter's title screen. (ie, if you are currently reading Chapter 5, then upon hitting the title screen for Chapter 6, the Chapter Select option will be unlocked with Chapters 1 through 6 available.)
Gallery
- The Censorship toggle will now affect thumbnails in the gallery (all thumbnails were previously censored by design), for anyone bothered by 10 pixel high censor bars.
Music
- The music player now has a visible progress bar and time information. (note: sadly, you currently cannot use the bar to scrub through the song. Maybe some day!)
General
- Readers can now exit out of the Chapter Select, Gallery, and Music screens by hitting Escape (on keyboard) or the B or Start equivalents (on gamepad) – no more having to manually hit the Return button.
- Keyboard users can now press the F5 and F9 keys to quick-save and quick-load, respectively, like a proper civilized video game. Hedwig will never fail a pickpocket check again.......
