Herald: An Interactive Period Drama - Book I & II

Changelog for patch 1.1.0 / (Windows) / (Mac) / (Linux) (added 07 March 2017):

New Features:

- Controller Support for most Dual Analog Stick gamepads.
- Alternative control scheme for controllers. Select 'Use Gamepad' in the Game Settings menu to switch between click-to-walk with the mouse and direct control with a gamepad's left analog stick.

Notes:

- If your dual analog stick controller doesn't work with Herald, and you think it should be supported, please drop by the community forum! We have only been able to test a limited number of controllers and will patch in more later.
- Daniel now has his own theme, which can be heard when he tells you about himself in the Galley.

Changes:

- When quitting the game, you now get a warning that you will lose unsaved progress since last checkpoint.
- The graphic for checkpoints (spinning compass) now also says 'saving.' underneath, so you know your progress is safe.
- NPCs' dialogue boxes now disappear when you click on them.
- Various dialogue choice texts and help notes were rewritten for clarity.

Bugfixes:

- Sometimes the game would not remember whether you found out certain information about Senator Morton, making a later dialogue branch harder to reach than it should be. This has been corrected.
- VSync & Target framerate are now correctly reset after cinematic interludes.
