Salutations! 'Tis I, Jun, the creator of YAKG!
I am happy to announce that Version 1.2 of "Yet Another Killing Game" is now available! This upcoming MAJOR update includes a highly requested feature: ACHIEVEMENTS~ It also has a massive range of fixes and improvements based on feedback and observational data collected over the past few months (see them all in the update notes further down this announcement!)
About Achievements
Fans of YAKG will know that this game has many, MANY hidden details and secrets, and our hope with the Achievement system is that it will guide players who've already reached the ultimate truth to seek out other truths they may have missed!
The Achievements screen can be accessed from anywhere in the game! ALSO, if you have cleared the full game, each locked Achievement will give you a little hint as to how to unlock it! Are you up to the challenge of finding all 60 (that's right, six-zero!) Achievements and becoming an epic KILLING gamer?!
Here are the full update notes!

WARNING ABOUT SAVE DATA
Due to some script changes, some save files you made in V1.1 (or earlier) of the demo or full game MAY not load correctly (i.e. crash, show an error message, return you to the Title Screen). As such...
IF YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR FIRST PLAYTHROUGH, we strongly recommend creating multiple save files and/or finishing your playthrough BEFORE you update to V1.2! If worst comes to worst, please start a new game and utilize the skip features in Config to catch yourself up. Sorry for any inconveniences!
Version 1.2 will also be accompanied by our BIGGEST DISCOUNT sale yet: 33% OFF! Get ready to spread the killing love to your friends and let's get YAKG even more popular~
