# Hotfix 0.2.2 - Facility Adjustments and Anomaly Resolutions

Aug 16

Management is watching, and we are pleased.

We want to formally thank our first wave of subjects who have signed their contracts and begun their new lives at the Saeturnus facility. Your initial performance on the casino floor has provided us with invaluable data.

A special commendation goes to those who have actively filed reports in our Community Hub regarding facility malfunctions and structural anomalies. Your vigilance ensures a smoother operation for everyone. The Director has reviewed your feedback, and the maintenance team has been dispatched.

The following adjustments and corrections are now live:

⚙️ Facility Adjustments

\[Loading screen]: The loading screen now covers the entire screen.
\[Juiciness]: Added more visual feedback and "juiciness" to Mines and Blackjack, with more enhancements to come soon.

🔧 Anomaly Resolutions

\[VIP]: Fixed an anomaly where subjects could not leave the VIP zone if they exited the game while inside it.
\[Note]: Fixed an issue where some subjects could not move after closing a note.
\[NPC]: Fixed an issue where a single NPC would play an abnormal animation and get permanently stuck in it.
\[UI]: Fixed the screen UI in the Director's office, which appeared disproportionate on certain resolutions.
\[Save]: Fixed a day-saving issue where subjects would sometimes reload and find themselves back at Day 1, despite the rest of their save data being intact.
\[Lucky Spin]: Fixed a bug where the game could be played for free indefinitely.
\[Phone call]: Fixed a bug where drinking to pass the time caused the phone to ring again just like on Day 1.
\[MULTIPLAYER]: Fixed a bug where if subject didn't customize his character, he would see itself in game.

🚧 Facility Improvements In Progress (WIP)

Saeturnus Management is currently working on an in-game bug reporting tool that will streamline the reporting process for all subjects.
Additionally, to improve subject morale and focus, ongoing work is being done on game functionality (such as auto-bet features), overall "juiciness," and NPC designs.

Remember to report any further anomalies to our Community Hub while the internal reporting tool is being finalized.

Keep gambling. Pay your debts. We hope you continue to enjoy your stay.

Bug Encounter

Room is paid for and everything it is the end of the day where you can hear your heart beat and it would normally show the text on how your vision is getting blurry and so on and so forth, but the text isn't showing and won't let me go to bed, gamble, or anything except for walk around and slap people. I'm having a lot of fun on the game and even made a second save where I haven't encountered this issue....

The Doors Are Open. Your Room is Ready. (Early Access)

Aug 12

Welcome to Saeturnus. We’ve been expecting you.

The contract is signed, and your new life begins today. We are pleased to announce that our facility is officially open in Early Access.

You owe us a significant debt. But don't worry, management is generous. We offer you every opportunity to clear your ledger. Step onto the casino floor. The lights are bright, the games are thrilling, and the chips are waiting.

What awaits you inside:

The Illusion of Control: Hit the tables, manage your time, and balance your basic needs. Every dollar counts when your freedom is on the line.
The Midnight Curfew: The casino changes when the clock strikes twelve. There is a reason we ask our guests to stay in their rooms. If you choose to wander the halls in the dark, you are solely responsible for what finds you.
The Hidden Truth: Neon lights cast long shadows. Will you be the perfect, obedient subject, or will you start looking for things you aren't supposed to see?

Why Early Access?

Every successful experiment requires a first wave of subjects. By joining us now, your data (and your feedback) will help us refine the facility, balance the economy, and perfect the... unexpected variables of the night shift. Your reports in our Community Hub will directly shape the final state of the project. Step into the elevator. Press the button. We are listening to everything. The Director is watching. We hope you enjoy your stay.

The Desperate Gambling Demo is Now Available! (+Multiplayer update)

Jun 12

Dear Candidates,

The Saeturnus Organization is pleased to announce that the doors to our complex are now open. The Desperate Gambling demo is officially live!

In this first testing phase, two distinct evaluations await you:

Isolated Evaluation (Solo Mode): Immerse yourself in the oppressive atmosphere of a cursed casino. Fund your daily life by betting at the gaming tables, scavenging usable waste, or racketeering other residents. Make absolutely sure to settle your room payment at the front desk before the start of each night, or face strange and deadly encounters. And above all, survive.
Group Evaluation (Cooperative Multiplayer Mode): Do you prefer teamwork? Perfect. You and your colleagues will be dropped into our testing labyrinth. Your objective is simple:
1. Explore the dark corridors to gather funds, while avoiding the ruthless "anomalies" roaming within.
2. Bring your loot back safely to the starting room to sell it to the merchant or bet it at the gaming tables.
3. Reach the required amount to trigger the ultimate trial: find the escape portal before it is simply too late.

We are eager to study your reactions... and measure your survival rate.

Download the demo now, and don't forget to add the game to your Wishlist to support the project!

The Management.

Stuck in VIP

I got into the VIP zone. I quit my game, joined it back and I was stuck in the VIP zone. I was not able to get out

Love the concept

Great concept! Please, for the love of God, tell me the audio design is 100% intentional, and the minimum bet/betting sounds while in the maze is also intentionally designed to mess with players. Because if that’s the case… I LOVE IT. Don’t change a thing. The weird choices are what make it memorable....

Alright

I liked the gambling parts for sure, but I could not find water anywhere I looked in the casino, only food and even then buying that when the food/water is so expensive it's hard to pay for it at the very start of the game causing a lot of failed runs. Also I didn't find it very fun to be gambling and having to look over constantly to see if Im dying of third or not, I know that's like part of the game and stuff but I think it goes down way too fast especially at the beginning when there's not much you can...

Neat!

Did a little run on the demo, and had some fun with it so far! Love that you guys did Blackjack with a proper 6 deck shoe, but you really need the option to split and double down. Also, the wack-a-mole game in the hotel room: the front left mole clips through the machine. XD On my first night, I couldn't figure out how to back to my hotel room, didn't realize I had to pay at the counter to get back up. I ended up standing on a counter during the night event, and didn't get caught. I woke up restarting D...
