- Voice and context updates, various bugfixes, 1-button voice repeats - 29 May 2024
This update addresses all notable issues related to context within both the fantasy and real-world areas of Koe (声). The vast majority of these took place in the school and we had the voice actors re-record new scripts for each scenario, and various smaller issues related to context or clarity were fixed during re-recording. Additionally, many voice clips were remastered from their source such that fewer voices sound too low or trail in/out at higher or lower volumes. In total, around 2600 clips have been updated. The following bugs were also fixed: - Certain enemy models were falling back to legacy models, these are now all fixed (most notably the bomb, butterfly, akashita, rokurokubi and the "wind boss") - Scholar's game should no longer randomly lock you out of his house. - The player should no longer get stuck between two panels that are close to each other. - The fourth midworld bo…

Hotfix 1 2024-04-22 The following issues were fixed: - The game currently softlocks for certain Windows users at the end of the first day when sitting next to Rora. - Some Hasui (Water village) flowers had collision issues that cause you to get stuck on them. - Interacting with the crystal on the beach at the beginning of the game will cause you to not return to the shrine the next time you come back to Koe, which was a little confusing. - Some text bubbles in the real world were gigantic.
