Storyteller

• Several story simulator bugs fixed
  
• Several mistranslations fixed
  

The second post-update hotfix is now available. It addresses some common bugs and small player requests, fixes translation errors, makes various improvements to levels and puzzle logic, and more. Full patch notes:

Various Bug Fixes and Improvements

• New icons: if you solve a level but "unmake" the solution, the game shows special icons in the title. We remade these to be more clear.
  
• New music setting: music can now be set to off, low, balanced, or high.
  
• Fixed some save data edge cases that prevented the 2 hour achievement from being registered if the player didn't do something that triggered a save.
  
• Visual effects for ghosts have been improved
  
• Several mistranslations have been fixed.
  
• You can now flip pages in-game by clicking/tapping anywhere on the sides of the screen.
  

Puzzle Logic and Scenario Fixes and Improvements

• New: characters locking people up will not free them if they continue being angry at them.
  
• New: queen and king resent rejections.
  
• New: resenting a rejection makes characters willing to lock up the rejectors.
  
• New: if there is a throne setting and the queen or king lost their crown, they will lock up anyone with the crown.
  
• New: the duchess will now take the martini if she knows the butler is a murderer instead of threatening him.
  
• New: when the detective sees a ghost haunting the manor, he deduces the murderer.
  
• New: the king will hate it if the maid and queen have an affair.
  
• New: if the king or queen are revived and there is no throne setting, they retake the crown.
  
• New: if someone is rejected by their former spouse, they no longer believe they are married.
  
• Fixed: missing sound for cage feedback on joystick has been added.
  
• Fixed: a missing animation for the duchess has been added.
  
• Fixed: a missing icon for the duchess has been added.
  
• Fixed: when there was a mutual rejection, both characters believed their spouses cheated, which triggered an invisible heartbreak that allowed shortcutting a level. They now react appropriately and their pose is improved, as a bonus.
  
• Fixed: characters now understand revelations of incest as an implicit divorce.
  
• Fixed: god is now longer scared of a fake gun.
  
• Fixed: characters no longer prioritize fidelity over potential incest when rejecting someone.

The first post-update hotfix is now available. It addresses some common bugs, improves bookmark navigation, and more. Full patch notes below:

• Bookmark navigation has been improved.
  
• Added a mechanism to repeat achievement uploads if they fail. If you believe the game missed an achievement, run it again after updating.
  
• Added more animations to Edgar in the mirror, characters in the dungeon, vampires, Prince Charming with frogs, and the Queen with the Knight.
  
• Subgoal solutions in multi-goal levels are now clickable too. This will reveal a valid solution for a previously-solved puzzle.
  
• Improved feedback in devil levels.
  
• Major Fix: Stamps should (hopefully) no longer disappear under any circumstances!
  
• Fix: achievement timing has been improved to help Steam show notifications in a timely manner.
  
• Fix: removed a bad solution for "Queen beheads all men."
  
• Fix: removed a bad solution to "Spouses reject each other."
  
• Fix: stopped the detective from shooting the Devil.
  
• Fix: occasional crown unlock bug has been fixed.
  
• Fix: Improved Duke's behavior, as he was being too gullible about the toy gun.
  
• Levels Removed: "Queens suffers four tragedies" and "Resurrection" have been temporarily removed while they are being fixed. Expect them to be added back into the game soon.
