Version 1.0.4 is a small update that includes foundational work on the future update to version 1.1. You may notice a few new objects in the game, however most of the update is "behind the scenes". There are a couple of noticeable changes:
1. Exclusive Full Screen Mode. The game will now launch in Exclusive Full Screen Mode. This is a typical setting for videogames, allowing the computer to assign resources to the game fully. Some users should notice an improvement on performance. Because the game is made for HD resolutions, those on 4:3 monitors will see a slightly stretched screen, but this is probably how most other games in exclusive full screen mode appear for you already.
2. Soundtrack (in The Study). This now works properly!
3. Cloud Auto Saves. This build now saves game data in AppData folder, for compatibility with Steam Cloud Saves (and GeForce Now, I'm sure they will include this game alongside all the AAA games they feature....!). This version is also saving into Registry (as before) but this will be phased out for the next version (1.1) and all save data will be stored in AppData folder.
Again, Version 1.0.4 is only a minor update to prep the game for a larger update to version 1.1 which will be released around the same time my next game (Treasure Islands) is released (in Q4 2021). Outside of the game loading in exclusive full screen mode and a few objects in the game world, you probably won't notice much!
