In Her Own Hands v0.5.1 released to public (Patreon)

Hey there, everyone!

In keeping with our accelerated release schedule, the new version of In Her Own Hands (version 0.5.1) is now available to the public! 

The official Walkthrough and Scene Guide has already been released for the updated game and is available for Patrons at the "Delight Me" ($9) level and higher. Our game guide is now up to 44 pages... and while we can't show you any spoilers, we've given you a peek of two inside pages below. Become a patron or upgrade today to download the Walkthrough and Scene Guide now!

Public download (v. 0.5.1): Mega.nz 

Any necessary bugfixes will be incorporated in the next update (0.5.2), expected to be completed within by the end of the month.

With this update, we further refined the TitKok function to upgrade saves from previous versions (from 0.4.0 and up). This feature is available using the TitKok app on the MC's phone. After loading a save game from an earlier version, click "Check for save game version." Beginning with this current release, this link will present a single link based on the undefined variables in your save. These links initialize any new variables added in the latest game version, so that events operate properly. If you don't use this feature, you have to start over in order to experience all events.

Of course, starting over is always an option. The game is not designed to linearly, and "new" events don't necessarily occur after "old" events. Depending on your choices, your results may vary (and this will only become more pronounced as the game development continues).

As always, if you find any errors or bugs that managed to sneak past us, please post them in the #Bug-Reporting board on Discord, message us directly here on Patreon, or email us at bugs@surprisedelightme.com. A description and/or screenshot, as well as the save game file of the game in which the error occurred, will help us locate and fix the error. Thanks!

Enjoy!
