{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43308753/a976ce2f706a56078f0b5dd05a02628e91843f15.jpg Escape from Lavender Island was released a year ago! Thanks so much to everyone who downloaded, streamed, talked about etc. I appreciate it so so much. The game and soundtrack will be 20% off from Sept 9 till the 23rd. A few updates! 1) The MIT show still is open until October 6th! If you're in the Boston area go check it out. Also I'll be giving a talk on September 26th with Mikael Jakobsson from the MIT Game Lab. 2) If you can't make it to the show, here is an amazing catalog by Zach Ngin and also below is an interview

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43308753/eec29b6a7e89476fc7a9702675ac8819a75eceb5.jpg An installation version of Escape from Lavender Island will be on display at the List Center at MIT. In the installation the simulation component of the game (Zede's Dream) will be on loop as well as a playable version of the game. There will also be a lot of ephemera from the game such as a giant version of the robot sweater that says Depression as well as some paintings of some of the buildings and 3d painted flowers from around the island. The game will also be on sale during the first week of the exhibition! If you're

-Beanstalk now only activates once you finish the game -Water was being given again once finishing that challenge in 2nd level -Game was saving past Warden's Office in 4th level. Now if you quit in the office, the save will be back in the underground area. -Clipping through landscape issue in 2nd level -Typo on agressive, changed to aggressive

-Fixed the save not working in vape store if you weren't wearing the right mask. It should save no matter what now. Also if it didn't save for you before, you should be able to go back inside. -Fixed the jumping on statues challenge not replenishing the ship power after jump -Fixed archeologist achievement (hopefully) -Fixed issue where people were getting spawned back into the ball game right after finishing it. -Added random hints etc around town in places where people were getting stuck Thanks again for letting me know about this stuff and to everyone who has played so far!

This quick patch will hopefully fix the achievements that weren't working. IF you already went through the game and some of your achievements weren't working, you can hit the z key 5 times in the main menu screen and that will hopefully check what you have and give you the steam achievement for it. Let me know in the discussions section or on twitter if there are still things not working. Thanks!

Honestly I'm not totally sure what this is but some guy at A.MAZE told me I should apply to this so I signed up for it and was accepted. It runs from August 3rd till August 10th. This game will be streamed for around an hour during a 3hr slot on Monday 7th from 5-8PM BST. Maybe you know what it is and will check it out. I'm sure I'll understand more later. Here is a link to it so you can check it out. Thank you and have a good day. ːsteamthumbsupː https://store.steampowered.com/sale/tinyteamsfestival2023 https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/43308753/a354c5f7a4b8b10115380de9afb99bcb45

-Made a bunch of stuff interactable with pills -You can hit signs, and people with various pills and new stuff will happen -Made a graphics setting 1-5. This should help with streaming lag issues. -Fixed a few small bugs people told me about -This is my first time posting an update notice. Hopefully I did this correctly.
