Two Week Sale!

In celebration of the Guns & Achievements update, Libertine: King of Hearts will be on sale for 40% off for two weeks. This sale will be the same discount as the Steam Summer sale so don't be afraid to pick it up early!

I've changed some achievement metadata and added a bunch of hidden achievements. This is just for testing purposes and these achievements cannot be acquired for now. Once the testing is complete they'll be removed again until the update is ready.

• Fixed zooming the spycam on controller which I broke yesterday because I'm an idiot

• Flushed the input during loading screens so you'll have to hit W again after the loading screen finishes before you can start to move.

• Increased the brightness of the flashlight on Claret's Peak, this should make it a bit easier to navigate
• Increased the exposure and decreased the white noise on the NVG
• Added some blocking volumes to Downtown Night to stop your Spycam from clipping in some areas
• Added a separate event for gamepad movement. This shouldn't be perceptible in any way

Alternate outfits for all the romanceable characters!

Each romanceable character now has a set of alternate outfits that you can toggle on and off. These outfits include new clothes, new hair, new makeup, and new body types. Along with these new outfits are new profile pictures, follower icons, and other UI elements for the updated looks. Outfits can be changed per character, so if you prefer the old looks for some of the characters, it's easy to mix and match.

Also included in the update is a demonstration map accessible from the main menu that lets you view and equip the new and old outfits. Outfits can also be changed in the settings menu during gameplay, but will require a level load to take effect.

In celebration of this update, the game will be on sale for 25% off for a week, so if you have any friends waiting to pick the game up, let them know!

• Fixed a major bug where grabbing or buying the VIP pass after the club quest will reset the Courtney questline to getting into the VIP area. If you got the VIP pass before entering the VIP area you should be fine. If you grabbed it after getting to the VIP area or any time after the romance scene, then please open the console with ~ and type "SetCourtneyStage XX" where X is the number to set your quest to where it should be. SetCourtneyStage 7 = Meet Courtney in the Bathroom at the club SetCourtneyStage 10 = Go get the Webcam SetCourtneyStage 12 = Watch her Stream in your apartment SetCourtneyStage 17 = Meet her to help with her Stream SetCourtneyStage 22 = Wait for her to message you about the festival SetCourtneyStage -1 = Decided to not go to the festival with you SetCourtneyStage 23 = Meet her to go to the festival SetCourtneyStage 99 = Beaten her questline and returned from the festival

• Reduced an issue where thrown gadgets would get stuck to the player in first person. I think this is still technically possible but it should be less frequent now.

• Added the ability to reset the controls to default in the Controls and Gamepad settings menus.

- Fixed an issue where there was no way to leave the Lake map when loaded into it from outside of a mission.

- Added Motorcycles to the spawn point of TheLakeDay and TheLakeNight maps to allow the player to travel back to town.

- Removed the ability to cycle between Lake Day and Lake Night on your phone. These maps are actually at different world coordinates from each other, so if you switched time of day on them, you would fall through the newly loaded map.

- Did a secondary update today that added some travel points between the beach change room and beach map, so the player can no longer get stuck in the change room while exploring outside of missions
