It has been a while but... This is probably the last major update before the full release of the Pivot of Hearts this year! IMPORTANT: Pivot of Hearts is still under heavy development and this updates includes several dialogue changes. As such, expect your saves from the previous demo version (0.11.4) to not be compatible anymore. Saves will become reliably stable only once the full game is released. The highlights for this update are:

• A new special scene at the end with a preview of content from the full game
• Scene animations 100% complete
• Music and sound 100% complete
• Card choices fully balanced
• Several UX improvements
