We've released some new stories by some new writers! In the latest update you'll find 15 new vignettes scattered around the country, ranging from the terrifying to the disgusting to the hilarious. All of them are voiced once again by the talented Keythe Farley.
In addition, we've fixed a few bugs, and added an autowalk mode - Press the F key on keyboard, or the right bumper on controller to walk steadily forward without needing to hold the key or stick.
Thank you for playing!
Today I'm putting in a change that will hopefully smooth out the story distribution. Instead of having all of the stories in a spot show up right away, some of them will only appear once you're further along the main task.
This will mean that visiting places you've already been will be more interesting, and that you won't get more stories than you know what to do with early on.
The items in your inventory that you collect as mementos of talking to characters can now be used to return to the place that you first met those characters. For instance, Ray's rib-bone flute will transport you to near Denver, Quinn's bandana to outside Boston.
Secondly, once you're past halfway in the game (once you've either finished half the characters or gotten halfway through all the characters) the fast travel options in the cities will travel substantially farther distances, and hopefully enable you to reach far-flung places more easily than in the past.
There is a "Next Track" control now - press right on the d-pad (or "N" on keyboard) to start the next regional music track playing.
