New Update Featuring Bullying, Teasing, and a Hotfix! (Build 0061)

Hey everyone we're back again with a hotfix and bullying! A few of you were reporting crashes with build 0057, so hopefully this hotfix (build 0061) should address most of those. We've been developing delinquency since the last build, and the big addition in this update is bullying and teasing. Bullies will target their victims during free time (Recess and Lunchtime).

Some students will now tease other students during class time.

Bullying was supposed to be counteracted by the new Monitor staff, but
we're not quite done with that yet because we wanted to push out this
hotfix. Rest assured work on the Monitor and Guidance Counselor is
proceeding now.

NOTE: For bullying to appear in the game, you will need to start a new school. Your old 0057 save files will still work, but no bullies will show up. If you don't want to deal with bullies yet until we release the new staff that's totally fine. We are putting this in the candidate build for now so that anyone that doesn't want to lose their schools can skip it.

As a reminder:

To access the Candidate Branch on Steam:

1) Go to your game library and right click on Academia School Simulator
2) In the pop up window, find and click on Properties.
3) In the properties window, click on the Betas Tab
4) Under Enter beta access code to unlock private betas type :

5) Click on "check code"
6) Under "Select the beta you would like to opt into" click on the dropdown
menu and click on "candidate"
7) You should now have access to the latest candidate build
