Nobody seems to have commented on the version number jump Darkhound did from 0.3.2 to 0.3.5. Does this indicate this update has four times the content of a normal update? Could be true looking at the long list in the Development News on Patreon, plus the new restaurant and the Ivy rework.(y)

Changing the version will not have an impact on the release date. The release date will be communicated when I know it.
Start of beta testing isn't that far into the future now.
DH seems to be giving the game a major update given new scenes, character enhancements, & quests/achievements. Given all of this I'm more surprised it isn't version 4.0 as opposed to 3.x. None the less it appears to be a wrthwhile release for HI fans.

These last few posts have really stepped up the story line. Please keep it up.
Something tells me Bantry is going to be shopping this for a telenovela??? (early retirement :D perhaps?)

It seems safe to assume the release turned into a milestone as the new role and other changes were added to it over time. So the release number changed to reflect that.

Note. A guess, though I believe it is a reasonable one

I have a question
Is the "Unravel Mercedes and Miriam's secrets" quest unfinished?
I did all 3 of the rest (Mercedes's background,Miriam's background, and the thing where you meet Mercedes at the gym about 2:30)
The only one left is the Discover the relationship between Miriam and Mercedes, which i have to talk to joy about,
But it says will be available in one of the next versions
So that one isn't updated yet?
