Soggy Horror Spoopfest '24 hotfix 1 is out
The first hotfix of 2.2 is out. I am still going to make several more adjustments later this week before I proceed forward with the end-of-the-year update. Still, I managed to squeeze out some changes I felt were important to stick with the difficulty set out for Spoopfest '24 but put things a bit more in player's favor by offering save game support at any point (Note that the game does NOT pause when you open your inventory or hit escape. So you really ought to try to save in a safe area not to shoot yourself in the foot) and shaving down rough edges with Thorn and some bad item descriptions.
---Change log---
- Save Game support added.
-Thorn's awareness and speed nerfed while Maddie's buffed.
-Thorn & Maddie's attack damage reduced slightly.
-Bad item descriptions corrected
-new wallpaper for the unicorn room and 2nd common key placement
-HP items give slightly more health and are a little more common in the main mansion area.
-lighter effectivity nearly doubled and auto equips and hotkeys by default. lantern and candle slightly buffed. Flashlight and camcorder unchanged for now.
Note that I am very likely to make further adjustment later this week and I am going to adjust Thorn's AI so she backs off on her own when stared at long enough but I wanted to get this patch out in a timely manner so that will have to wait till the 2nd hotfix.
This build is free however purchases to the game help tremendously on both it's development, voice and art assets.

unfortunately, I can't get saves to work still. I load in to a flat black screen, but I can hear things going on around me
what area did you save at? was it the 2nd area with the pig and lynx character or the 3rd area with the cow character? Both of those areas are getting polished next update and I would like to hammer out any black screen load bug.
first area, actually. I tested it in a couple places and crashed this way repeatably saving anywhere in the first area
Oof, I do intend to stress test it more strictly in the near future and I really appreciate you bringing it to my attention.
hey its fine! Im happy to help out with this!
It's not showing up to download, just brings up the 2.1 version
check under demo or get it off the build archive. It's not going to show up where 2.1 is due to how itch.io organizes downloads.
Do you mean the "old build archive" that with the bundle
Nvm, found it 😅
definetly nice to have saves back, the game finaly feels like not on hard mode, tho not sure if it's because of new build, but in the room between the mansion and Lab when I picked up the paper to read it, the wall with bear girl picture on it dissapeared and later as I came back to the room I fell off the map, but other than that the hotfix feels nice and the rooms being a bit more distinct is definetly a nice touch, also stuff I noted in previous version was that the whole thorn gimmick of her being frozen for a short period of time when she's not messy feels pretty anxious because you can't really tell if it's triggered or not until you look back at her but that's all problems I have with it, oh and the maze minigame is a nice idea tho I had some hope's that if the ball fell into the wrong hole with the picture of Rea messing herself next to it the Animation from the Preview of her messing herself would play
