Hey guys! Sorry for the delay in releasing this update. Anyways, here’s the changelog:
Fixed two typos during Day 4 of Vlad’s route.
Fixed a visual bug where Vlad changed hue while he left the screen during Day 4 of Vlad’s route.
Added a song that was already in the game to the sound room when it wasn’t there before.
Apparently, there was an error where one of the tracks in the sound room wouldn’t play the file associated with it, but I never noticed it until this update. Either way, I fixed it.
Swapped the order of two songs in the sound room to be more consistent with the bandcamp soundtrack.
Updated Kamil’s arms crossed pose and all outfits associated with it. This includes finishing two of Kamil’s arms crossed outfits.
Slightly updated Vlad’s expressions and base pose sprite.
Added a CG to Day 4 of Vlad’s route. This replaces the placeholder CG in the gallery.
Sorry for the infrequent updates. I have a lot of stuff to go through for the rest of 2026, so I don’t have much brain space for By Your Hands. For one thing, I’d really like to release the demo for Great Men Don’t Lie before the end of 2026. I also want to clean up my life a little. Sorry for the delay. I don’t want to jinx myself by saying “Oh, actually this VN’s not going to be on a crazy long hiatus don’t worry” and then the game is dead for at least 2 years. So instead I’ll say that I am going to take things easy and that updates will happen when they’ll happen. I’m 26 years old, and I want to make sure I don’t waste the rest of my 20s. I hope you guys understand. In any case, enjoy!
