Hey, thanks for keeping this updated, Hustlefan! I'll jump in to announce that we have just added GOG achievements!

Detailed patch notes for version 1.1.1

'Patchable' achievements

We did our best to make each achievement patchable, i.e. automatically grant it to all players that met the requirements to receive it before this patch. This has been possible with most of them, but some track completely new variables – more on those below.

To receive all patchable achievements you (would have) previously unlocked, please start the game and load each existing save file once. In other words: Click your previously used save slot(s) in the profile selection to be taken to the main menu, and you should receive everything you're owed at once. Let us know if you're not getting any achievements you feel like you should be.

'Non-patchable' achievements

There is also a number of non-patchable achievements. These can only be unlocked in a completely new save file – or in an ongoing one if you haven't played too far already:
- Happy Boi / Chonky Boi: you haven't beaten the first level where Neil appears as the protagonist.
- Good Cop / Bad Cop: you haven't finished the Villa level yet.
- She's Got A Point: you haven't had your second conversation with Zora yet.
- Groupie: you haven't been down to Paluhn Market twice already.
- Consumer & Couch Potato: you haven't reached any of the game's finales yet.
- afk?: you haven't beaten the game yet.
