changelog (in no particular order, and in as much detail as possible)

• characters now have voice sound bites when they talk.
• animated text has been added throughout dialogue.
• some dialogue has been tweaked to fix typos or make more sense or be slightly more funny.
• extra behind the scenes art can be found in trash cans at random.
• speaking of, the info menu now has behind the scenes art along with controls and credits.
• a few new achievements have been added.
• you can explore a bit more freely in episodes 1 and 3, where originally you couldn't backtrack outside much.
• in episode 1 if you backtrack to alarmy after making it through the book fair. there's a new interaction with them.
• season and episode numbers are written below save and load slots.
• a few more sound effects were added, and all sound has been re-leveled to be on par with the other sound channels.
• some full screen THWACK effects have been swapped for POW and WHAM, just to mix it up.
• your cursor turns into a hand when hovering over something clickable.
• you can return items at steve's skateshop.
• renamed the "options" button to "settings" so it matches the label of the actual menu.
• removed holden's nose from his background sprite (he doesn't need it, he smells enough as is).
• one word of dialogue per episode now explodes after x amount of seconds.
• cody starts off episode 1 just named cody, for symbolism and poetics or whatever.
• in episode 1 once g-ma leaves the house, cody can blast britton spears on his tv all he wants.
• you can use the ESC button to close your phone and other menus.
• cody's proof of candidacy is now visible when he's winking during his handspring in episode 3.
• some character positioning on screen has changed (for example, if you click on the lefthand door at the bookfair, cody will be facing left, instead of originally he was always facing right).
• somehow you could click on page # on the load and save screens and straight up rename the page, with incorrect alignment. it was kinda messy so that's been removed.
• slanguage arts class has a filter over the music, mostly for a vibe change when entering the room.
• added secrets, but i won't get into details cuz they're secret, duh.
• edit: totally forgot to mention, added a skip overlay so when you skip, you really know you skip.
• edit: unarchived files so you can go into the folders and mess with images heheheh.

hopefully that's it, there have been a lot of minor changes since working on the development of season 2, so apologies if i've missed something. if there are any bugs, feel free to @ me or dm me on twitter or comment here or wherever. we'll try and get things sorted asap!
