Logic & Quests
- The Weaver now gives you the hooks in dialogue on Day 11.
- Fixed map markers: the Bone Stake Lot on Day 8 and the hospital.
- The doghead mask on Day 6 wasn’t removed after resetting the Steppe Wolf quest, breaking it. Fixed.
- Fixed Peter and Andrey’s texts on the “People” screen.
- Improved some “Mind Palaces” (for example, the chess flashback one).
- Added a number of key nodes to the Mindmap (“key nodes” are the ones shown outside of specific days).
- A decree is now awarded correctly for the quest with the boarded-up house.
- Fixed the thoughts related to restoring the Headquarters table after the bull ate it (bad boy).

- Grief no longer disappears on Day 10 in the escape quest (there were conflicts with another quest).
- The conversation with Georgiy on Day 10 now resets correctly.
- Returned Victor’s Shadows’ dialogue on Day 12.
Visual, Audio, Geometry
- (Important!) Everyone’s skin should now look less plastic and be less shiny.
- (Important!) Notes now glow less aggressively — no furious neon green anymore.
- Gave Yulia a cigarette; gave Maria’s Signs correct glasses; and gave the brides in the village mortars and pestles.
- The Shadows of Saburov and Katerina now (supposedly) stand where they should on Day 12.
- Added calluses to Astrild’s hands — they were mentioned in the description, but not shown visually.
- Trimmed a bit of grass at the waste lot!
- Fixed dynamic lighting in the Backbone.
- Kids who pretend to be soldiers with sticks now do so with sticks.
- Toned down the fireworks a bit more.
- The river in the Maw now babbles the way it should.
- The dramatic mirror burial mound in the Cathedral no longer pokes the killer in the butt with its shard.
- Added a sparkle to Grief’s eyes!
- Gave ponytail girls eyelashes!
- Additionally reduced the shine on Sticky’s skin.
- The plague trap that spits spores from a wall now glows slightly in the dark — it used to be basically invisible.
- Fixed the lighting in Rubin’s house and the lamps at his Warehouse location.
- Fixed the physics of a table and stool — they could create softlocks in hospital quests.
- Added a curtain to the window in the little operations room.
- Buckets no longer fly around the Stillwater!
- And the Cathedral no longer has mirrors (the wrong kind).
- The drawing on the Stillwater wall no longer overlaps the mop used to wipe it off.

- Shabnak sometimes incorrectly appeared in the Headquarters as dead when she was alive.
- The paper bull now correctly leaves the Artifacts section after a quest reset. Previously, tiny bulls were piling up.
- Scenes showing townsfolk reactions to certain decrees used to trigger in rioting districts, where they don’t belong.
- Traders can now provide a recipe for Herbal Mixture — a light sedative.
- If you talk to Sticky in the prison on Day 12, he no longer gets smacked in the forehead by the door.
- If resetting a quest returns resources to the player, this is now shown on the node in the Mindmap only at the start of the day, not constantly.
