You can also fully start and then close the game before updating, allowing the game's save to be uploaded to the cloud save.







Wishing everyone a pleasant gaming experience!

The save issue from February 25th still exists, and we may not be able to recover save files that were not properly saved by the cloud save before that version update, or indirectly damaged as a result. These players will have to play the game again. We are launching Steam for the first time and have no experience with it. We are truly sorry, T.

• Then, let's talk about future updates:

• 
  
  In the future, we will slow down version updates to stabilize the version, and we have now found a way to integrate with Steam Cloud to prevent archive damage caused by version updates (except for archives with outdated versions).
  
  On Saturday, March 1st , the game will undergo an official version update of v1.0.0. After this update, the game should also be stable. In the future, unless there are serious bug issues, bugs will be fixed in batches on a regular basis, rather than releasing small version updates bit by bit.
  
  
  Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to the players who have read this. Despite being a free game, I have put in my utmost effort to create and modify various bugs. Because my job is in art, I encountered an unexpected situation outside of the game engine in the Steam docking window for the first time, and I feel a bit overwhelmed. In addition to trying to fix it as much as possible, I can only hope that everyone can understand and tolerate it!
  
  Wishing you a pleasant gaming experience and a happy life.

Bug fix:
1. Fix the issue where some maps cannot click on the settings when opening the menu.
2. Fixed a major bug in Chapter 3 where the map could be displayed by simply going back.
3. Fixed the bug where the prologue and Shiina entered the maze separately, causing text repetition and a black screen.
4. Fixed lighting issues in the prologue section.

Optimization and Content Update:
1. Optimized the display effect of Xiyin's portrait portrait (omitted in the last update).
2. Optimized the introductory text.
3. Slightly increased the difficulty of entering the true ending (really slightly, the impact is not significant).
4. Optimized the presentation of some CG details.

Due to my lack of English proficiency, this announcement will be translated using machine translation. I apologize if there are any issues.

This update announcement not only displays the updated content, but also focuses on addressing the issue of some players losing their saved files after the update!
Since the release of the game, we have been continuously optimizing and updating, and have fixed many bugs. Nevertheless, due to my personal technical mistake, an unexpected situation occurred. After the bug was fixed and updated on February 22nd, many players' save files were lost and missing. I deeply apologize for the impact on everyone's enjoyable gaming experience!!! But because the subsequent versions were temporary and allowed players to enter the game, the underlying path issues were not fixed, which seriously hindered subsequent updates and version number comments. The expansion of the save limit column this time will also have a certain impact.
Therefore, we can only change the path again, which will result in some players (cloud save function often draws) losing their save again. We apologize again! In order to avoid affecting players who are currently playing, I chose to release this update in the early morning and try not to affect more people due to this issue.

The following will provide a detailed explanation on how to recover your archive. The method is simple, and if you encounter this problem, please be sure to watch it:
① Firstly, in your Steam game inventory list, find our game 'Hanabi and Ghost Girls'.
② Right click on the game - (point to) Manage - (click) Browse local files.
③ At this moment, the root directory of the game pops up, where you can see a folder called "花火与幽灵少女v0.9.82". Double click on this folder to open it.
④ The save folder here is your lost archive (don't worry about the other file)! Right click on the save folder and select copy.
⑤ Move back to the previous level, which is step 2, browse the game root directory after local files, and paste the save folder here.

In this way, you have successfully retrieved the lost save and can continue playing the game normally!!!
We would also like to express our profound gratitude to the players who support and understand the difficulties of the Lone Wolf Maker. I hope this little incident won't affect your mood.

Regarding the content of this update:
Bug fix:
1. Fixed the issue where the texture in the prologue caused players to pass through walls.
2. Fixed some text bugs and facial image display errors.
3. Fixed the issue of incorrect display of bubble expressions in Chapter 3 of Xiyin Line.

Optimization and Content Update:
1. Increase the manual save slots of the game from 19 to 40!
2. Optimized some of the chase battles and added or modified the location of save points before the chase battle, so that if the chase battle fails, there will be no need to watch long storylines again.
3. Optimized the display of the title interface when entering the game, now it will be faster than before.
4. Refine the option prompt for (this option will affect the game ending) to (this option will affect the favorability of a character, and when the favorability reaches a specific condition, it will change the game ending).
5. Optimized some CG performance effects.
6. Added some object interactions (mainly for the prologue and first chapter).

So far, that's all for this update. Thank you to the players for their feedback. I have carefully read and considered every comment, and I also ask everyone to continue supporting 'Hanabi and Ghost Girls'
