Second Thoughts Version 1.1 Update | Experiment 2: Tartarus

2022-10-30

Experiment 2: Tartarus - Added Experiment 2: Tartarus. • This time, you are tasked with releasing seven subjects and leaving one to be executed. • Each subject has committed crimes a lot more severe than that of the first experiment. • The type and order of information you will receive will also differ from the first experiment. • You can access the new experiment after you have completed the first one. Added Features: - Added additional functionality to observation to display the status of each subject every day. - Added ability to go back to the main menu from an experiment, rather than just closing the game. Bug Fixes: - Fixed some timings between several menus to make the game flow better. - Fixed some spelling and grammar mistakes in experiment 1. - Fixed bug where volume would reset when returning to the main menu from an experiment.
