Hello there, everybody! Just a quick update to say that Absent v1.2 has been released to Steam with a series of updates that some of you have been asking for.
The updates are as follows:
Removed "mouse over" command over the door of the foyer.
This was causing some problems when trying to give an item to the receptionist on Day 2. I have removed the script command to switch the mouse mode to "use" when it hovers over the door.
Altered "walkable areas" in the town centre towards the end.
Some players were able to walk inside the area of the town with the press and Mrs. Fish. This should not happen and has now been resolved.
Fixed co-ordinates in the kitchen during Crystal's cutscene.
One player managed to place Murray outside of the kitchen during the portable ladder scene. Murray's co-ordinates have been revised so that this doesn't happen.
Added a greater hint to find Eve on Day 2.
Some players mentioned that the objective wasn't clear after the cutscene with the kiss. Now, if the player is in the second floor corridor, and they are stuck for a short while, they will get a little hint about what to do next.
Added Save ( S ) + Restore ( R ) + Options Commands ( O ).
For those that have their F5, F7 and F9 keys set to perform alternate actions to their computer, they now have an alternative set of keyboard commands to use.
Alternative solution to “So Boring” achievement.
If you have read your homework to six other characters, when you hand in the homework to the teacher, the achievement will be accepted.
Typo on Day 2 corrected.
Just an apostrophe out of place! All the same, fixed!
That's all for now. Hope you all enjoy the game! And stay tuned for an update within the next week or so about a future FNGame!

Hello everybody!
Great to see that you guys seem to be enjoying Absent! Been checking out your comments and the letsplays on YouTube and taking a lot on board as a developer.
This game was finished and released initially back in 2013 and since then, we have been working on a sequel, and working to branch the original game out to a larger audience. And by the looks of it, the launch of this first game has gone relatively smoothly since it was Greenlit and it's great to see that it seems like the game has an audience!

Updates will be coming more frequently in the future as progress on our games continues, so please stay tuned for development on Absent II, as well as an announcement on another graphic adventure game from FNGames launching in early 2016.
Talk soon, everybody!
