Hello! Lots of work has been happening even after 4.0 Hotfix 01.

-A while new UI! You will notice the changes immediately upon firing up the game. A new title screen and inventory/buy/sell menu awaits you.

-I used AI upscaling techniques and prompt s to depixelate some backgrounds. I wanted to ensure only Bust-Dialogue scenes did this, as not to contrast heavily when pixelart is the main design.

-There is now a better font  for all text. It supports lots of languages, so expect localization soon.

-Less annoying UI sounds.

-Ability to go back to world map from any level .

-A lewd pixel event got an update.

-Save system is completely revamped. You now have 5 slots to save in , and I have removed the ability to save from the pause menu. You now have to interact with an object in the world to save.

-You can now view your time played and other stats when selecting a save slot.

-Refactored ALOT of tiles in the name of performance. I hated doing this btw.

-Removed mouse functionality. Everybody hated it anyway.

-Gallery got some improvements.

-A lewd scene in Lv4 got some new SFX.

-Pausing the game now disables layer motion instead of changing game speed.

-Lorestone text has been modified...again.

-Keymappings have been heavily cleaned up.

-There is a new way to display the controls. Controller support is now optimized, and you can change the input prompts between Keyboard and Controller.

-Fixed a bug that softlocked the game if Dog fell down, off the screen.

-Fixed a bug that made replaying Level 8 softlocked and unplayable.

-Replaced the old wooden blimp airship with a real one, completely custom. The new airship represents an advanced civilization, not yet     encountered in HH. This includes Rhed's minigame where you can see the massive new deck.

-Changed the ship's "Torches" To Obelisks, and the Obelisk to a large Azulite.

-Removed the Lewd UI from some of the old bonus scenes. This reduced resources and increases performance for the entire game, believe it or not.  The old bonus scenes are still available just the same, but some features such as zoom   is removed.

-Added an "examine" context prompt to all items that are interactible. Chests excluded.

-Sped up the dialogue menus to display instantly .

-Removed lots of old, unused assets

-Various code cleaned up and refactored because im a little better at shit now.

Also, 

We will be at Hentaicon, hosted by DLSITE this april. It is a virtual show, so I will be sure to add links to it before hand!
