Hey all! Thank you so much for the glowing reception to Befriendus, I've been melting half to death from the warm welcome and I'm sure the rest of the team would say something similar. Work is already underway for our next upd8 featuring volumes 3 & 4, but for now we figured we'd provide a more general bugfix update -- notice the change in spelling. Presenting version 1.2!

Some general patch notes:

• Added a proper window icon for the game. No more pretty anime snake lady. Only MSPA Reader.
• Tweaked how frames are handled so that that weird grid background doesn't show up on upscaled window sizes.
• A few grammar fixes here and there because we're goofs who made writing mistakes.
• Changed some of the content warnings around. Blood is now a general warning, and we also added institutionalism to Mituna's volume.
• Even MORE quirked dialogue can be disabled than before because we missed a spot in some vol. 2 narration.
• Made the social media icons in the credits more consistent.
• We now have a link to our Sponsus page in the volume select and credits pages!

Most importantly, however, and the whole reason I'm making this announcement post: the automatic update system. If all goes well, you will no longer be forced to re-download the game with every upd8. Because of this, I recommend you re-download the game right now for what is hopefully the final time, because from here on out you should get a notification in-game when there's a new version to download! The future is amazing!!!

I look forward to showing you all what we're working on next. Stay friendly!
