The game is updated to make it playable with Mac Big Sur and later. There's no change for other platforms, and the patch won't affect the save data.
Duplicity Update and The Missing Persistent Save Data
dUpLicity ~Beyond the Lies~ is now updated so that it will work with Mac OSx Catalina.
There is one problem though, the persistent save data which stores the information of the unlocked CGs, routes, story books and endings might be reset. This is also occurred in the Windows version. The issue is happened because the previous version was made using Renpy 6.99.6 and to work with Catalina, I need to update the Renpy version to 7.3.5. To make the save data work with the newest version, you need to open the save data step-by-step from Renpy 6.99.6, 6.99.7 to 6.99.8 (or 6.99.9) before opening it with this version. I'm very sorry but I'm clueless myself about what might cause this issue.
The solution I can offer are: 1. Send me your persistent save data inside game/saves/ folder and I will fix that and send it back to you. 2. I can send you the persistent save data with a cleared game data to unlock all the CGs and others, but please don't use this if you haven't fully cleared the game as it might mess up with your achievements.
The regular save data which saves your gaming progress will not be affected and won't be reset. This issue is only related with the persistent data.
The game update is at late October 26, 2019, so people who played after the update will not be affected.
I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards, Roseverte
Crash and virus problem
Lately I got so many reports about the game is getting detected as virus.
This game is not a virus, and the detection is a false positive.
Yet, even if I reported that to the anti virus company, only small of them will really pay attention and reply to me.
I found a way to make an exe which is less detected as virus, yet still some antivirus might ask you to block or allow the exe. Please choose allow and add it at exception (for AVG etc). That's the most effective and fast way rather than waiting for the anti virus answer.
ABOUT THE CRASH
Some of you might get the Steam Client crash when you try to play the new version of the game. If you're using avast, it is what caused the issue.
I tested my games on avast 10.1 and all renpy games (cafe 0 and duplicity) doesn't work, except those version which I already submitted to avast to whitelist (yet AVG still detected this version highly as virus and automatically send it to virus vault without giving options to put it as exception)
How to fix: update to avast 11.1 I tried this and it works on my pc. Idk why renpy games stuck with ver 10.1 but this solve the issue.
Remember to update the program, not the virus definition (you can update both, but the program is the important one)
Thank you.

Fix for "Other" Gallery related Achievements
There is an update to fix the "other" gallery related achievements.
The issue only happened for people who has completed the game with the previous version, because the achievement would only been granted to people who hasn't unlocked the bonus cg.
The new fix made the achievement available for people who has completed the game with the previous version as well. To get the achievement, you need go to the main menu after unlocking the bonus cg at the gallery menu.
