Got a few reports about people's games locking up at a particular scene some of the time, and it took me a while to track down exactly what's happening, but it's finally fixed and uploaded everywhere! If you downloaded a copy before now, you may want to grab a fresh one just to be safe.
If you were given a google drive link, the file it points to has been replaced. Open the same link and the fixed version should be there.
Just check for the "v0.40b" on the main ...
It's The Hidden Update! What does that mean? Get all the info on my site!

Sure enough, there were a lot of bugs with the new hidden content in the advance release. Those should all be fixed up now, and a deal of typos and such besides. Hope you guys enjoy!

Dear Diary,
I hope you've had a good month! Looking back, mine has been pretty good. I've been getting lots of work done, but also getting lots of good playtime in, and on top of that I've been getting a little better about my social life. Mostly by pure luck? It's a little embarrassing to talk about, but suffice it to say, this month has left me feeling pretty good. I almost feel bad talking about it, like... I worry that maybe you haven't been doing so well, and I don't want to be a jerk...
The Hidden Update is here! This one is a little unusual, in that there's a big section of new content... but it's hidden. The first time you play through the game, it's fairly likely you'll see it at some point, but it's certainly gonna be a surprise, and I don't want to spoil that for you guys going back to play through now.
So instead, I'm going to tell you a little about it to give you clues and point you in the right direction! This section of content has actually ...
So this is your spoiler warning! The advance release is scheduled to come out tomorrow for v0.40: The Hidden Update. This art preview is for some pretty surprising content that's the center of that update, so you may wanna wait until after you've played the new version and found it for yourself, or it'll spoil the big surprise! I'm gonna talk about the art from here, so turn back now if you want to enjoy the pristine experience of going "what the hell is Lithier doing now?!"<...
2019-04-27 03:47:58 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! The Hidden Update is, tentatively, ready! It's the pre-release MMU, and that means that rather than using the Diamond Door, you get to find this one out in the wild!
And this time around, that's going to be more of a challenge than usual. As I mentioned last month, part of the experience with this one is finding it. It's going to be a surprise/secret for new players, and I want you to be able to enjoy a little of that surprise yourself, if possible.
So!...
This one was, fittingly enough, a real challenge to see through to completion. I know a lot of people were really moved by this scene, and I wanted to make sure the art for it was just right. I knew Khuraji was the right pick, he's done several other pieces for the game already, and he really gets into this sort of sketchy, medieval water color style that lends a great feel to pieces like this. I'm really happy w...
2019-04-08 01:45:30 +0000 UTC View PostAlright. You've got a weird choice with this one.
v0.40 is going to be "The Hidden Update." I'm adding a big chunk of new content, but it's hidden, and I'm gonna give a few clues at release and let people figure it out for themselves where it is. This is partly because I feel like the surprise when you find it is a pretty important part of the experience.
So! You guys are my biggest supporters, and I don't want to ruin that experience for you. This content is an...
Dear Diary,
This month has been... intense! I guess that last month was a lot of struggling to stop spending time on stuff that was "not fun and not work," and... this month was kinda the opposite. Actually, I've kinda... spent way too much time playing games and getting completely, horrendously absorbed into them to the point it was a little detrimental to my health! But um... I think I'm getting better! I'm still getting work done, and enough of it that I feel at least somewhat proud of ...
Really happy with how this one came out! I think I mentioned this before, but I've been getting a little frustrated with how "gray" Lith has been getting in a lot of the art. Black cats can be pretty intensely black! I mentioned that when I was working with MorgueBuddy on this, and they were super accommodating with trying out new values and lighting methods to really make Lith look black, but still ...

Got another finished up! Seen a lot of delays with artists I'm in touch with, so I'm counting myself lucky that last one came through in time, but I'm hoping I'll have more than enough for the next few updates. I've admired FaustSketcher's work for a long time, so it's awesome to finally have the chance to get a piece from them. We had some communication trouble early on, but they were very patie...
2019-03-19 23:36:43 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! Wanted to take a minute to check in and talk about upcoming features that have been... well, "upcoming" for a while. I've been working on adding in more fancy stuff on the side with every new release, and I've caught up on most of the promises I've made, but I've had to pace myself since there was just a ton of new stuff added with the overhaul of rewards a few months ago.
Right now, there are three things that are still "in the works."
It's still slow going g...
Well! Looking back, it seems last time I lost track of my thoughts while posting the poll. I'm thinking about narrowing down the list of options, as I think too many options maybe makes it a little tough to choose, and right now there's not very much agreement from the community. I thought I might do that last time, but I thought of another thing to add at the last minute and changed my mind.
Maybe next time we'll take out the least popular option again, and try five options. I think t...
Alright! Sorry for the delay, but your personal named copies should now be fixed! I updated the files directly on Google Drive, so everyone that got a named copy should be able to use the same links I've sent out to get the new version with the cheat issues fixed.
Remember, just check when you open the file that it says on the main menu, "v0.39 Deluxe+b!" That means it's the fixed version. Sorry for the trouble, guys!
Hi guys! I got a report for a few issues with the new Magic Glove functionality, and it broke down to two things. One was basically that a section of it plain didn't work, and that's fixed now if you download a new copy.
The other issue was with the way the game loads a save if you've used the Magic Glove before. If you've used the Magic Glove before on that save, then you load it on any version of the game I released earlier today, then it'll change the file you loaded to make the glo...
A new chunk has been added for the final chapter, and a bunch more! Get all the info over on my blog!

Since the advance release a week ago, we've ironed out a ton of typos and iffy grammar thanks to my excellent proofers. I've also added the second piece of art and the new save backup feature! I hope you enjoy!

Here comes another big release! Thanks for being a big part of this project, and I hope you enjoy your extra big copy of the game!
Also, small update: I got back in touch with the artist for the new GUI, so I'm hoping we'll finally be able to push forward with that soon. Keep an eye out!

Dear Diary,
Phew! I glanced over my last entry, and it's hard to believe that was only a month ago! I've been through a lot of ups and downs since then, and I simultaneously feel like I've gotten a ton done, but also almost nothing. That's one of those weird things about trying to improve yourself: it's important to keep pushing yourself, to never accept that what you've done so far is enough to just settle back and stop trying. But at the same time, without that feeling of "okay, that's e...
Phew! After a lot of waiting in queues, I'm in contact with a ton of artists right now getting various pieces going, but it was getting a little nerve-wracking getting this close to the planned release date without any of them actually finishing. Luckily, atryl came through for me, and now we have this lovely piece to serve as a sharp contrast to the other going into this update!
This one did come with a few...
The Steel Door is open! Now you can go through a second time, and the content will be different depending on the choice or choices you made previously. There are two major new scenes and a lot of variants added and smaller segments here and there.
Along with that, one new piece of art is ready. I've got several more pieces that are just on the verge of being ready, but it looks like I'll have to add the second sometime next week.
Pretty straightforward, though I've got a few mor...
Alright! Things went a bit smoother with this one, though there's still a deal more work to be done before the final release is ready. This MMU features the bulk of the new content for v0.39, though the little intro and outro snippets are still missing, and it's likely there'll be some bugs and typos.
With this update, you can now take your second trip through the final door and go either way! This content changes depending on the choice you made the first time, so there are effectivel...
Phew! This one gave me some trouble in more ways than one, but I think it came out decent in the end. Now, usually the post-update MMU would open the Diamond Door, but for this one, the nature of the content made it better to just integrate it directly. So this time around, you'll be able to find all the content right where it belongs!
For this one, I've added the second visit to Naughty Lith, behind the final door. This means you can now open the door a second time, but you'll only be...
Dear Diary,
The last month has been kinda... intense! In several ways? I just glanced over my last entry and noticed I was talking about having some trouble with work/play balance, and my first thought was how for the last week I've been way behind on work and having a lot of trouble catching up. Oh no, I thought! I'm having even more of those troubles now!
But I thought about it for a minute, and that's not quite true. It's true that I've gotten into a lot of silly, fun stuff latel...
Shoot! I meant to drop this poll earlier, but it slipped my mind. Still plenty of time, though!
Last time, you guys voted in the female (or at least, nodick) version of the dominant Lith alt for Snuggle>Grind. So that's off the list, and I've also taken away the Touch Self scene for females as an option, as it was the least popular option twice in a row. For now, I'm only adding one new option, as I'm

I managed to snag another one from SalKitten! I just can't resist their style when it comes to rendering the game's sweeter moments, they make everything look so soft and soulful. They're always pleasant to work with as well, and just make some beautiful art in general, so I'm always glad to snag a slot.
With this, I still need one more piece for the coming update if I'm counting right, but I've got a fe...
Tons of little things added with this update! Get all the info over on my blog!
