Life's Payback - v2.2.1 (changelog)
🕑 Added 2025-10-19 19:50:09 +0000 UTCWhat's up guys, I guess almost everyone is on a dangerous edging state right now, and need to play the new update as soon as possible, so I'll keep this changelog short even if there is A LOT to say. We'll talk about it in the next days on Discord.
Just chill and have a good reading while your update is downloading!
Monetization:
Due to the recent drama between Itch and Collective Shout, I’ve unfortunately lost my main source of income. Because of this, I’ve decided to make my updates available to subscribers only.
This choice allows me to keep creating quality content while maintaining some financial stability, until Itch provides me with new payment processors.
New major feature:
There is a lot to say about this new feature, but I'll keep it short.
I just want to let you know that this feature took weeks and thousands of lines of code, because I tried to turn the Ren'py engine into something else that it wasn't intended for.
It's minimalist, but if you guys like it, I'll improve it when we get to work on this arc again, in the future.
I really want to give you a detailed explanation but that would such a waste to give you major spoilers just when you're about to play the update, so let's skip that part.
I know it made you wait longer than usual, BUT I went for a total of 16 animated scenes to compensate the whole month without content, so you still get what you pay for.
Diana :
- 1 scene including 4 animations and 3 angles
- 1 scene including 1 animation and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 2 animations and 3 angles
- 1 scene including 2 animations and 2 angles
Sarah :
- 1 scene including 1 animation and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 2 animations and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 1 EPIC animation, 3 standard animations and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 1 animation and 2 angles
New Character : ???
- 1 SFW scene including 1 animation
- 1 scene including 1 animation and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 1 special animation, 3 standard animations and 3 angles
- 1 scene including 1 animation and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 2 animations and 3 angles
New Character : ???
- 1 scene including 1 animations and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 1 special animation, 3 standard animations and 2 angles
- 1 scene including 1 animations and 2 angles
Laura, Ingrid, Grace, Megumi :
- Changed what their quest for the dojo says, so you're not confused if you've finished the update or not.
- Removed the unnecessary second green dot for the "Facefuck Grace" event
- Fixed a shitton of typos
User Interface:
- The characters grid is now scrollable only vertically, and I've added a scrollbar for better understanding
Bug Fix (v2.2 -> v2.2.1):
- Fixed a bug preventing you from progressing with Sarah and Diana if you rushed the Elf content like a god damn elf worshipper
- Fixed a bug reseting your progress with Olivia if you went back to the bandit camp like a fucking noob while you already did the quest there.
- Fixed a bug preventing you from seeing other camera angles for a specific scene of Sarah
- Fixed a bug who could make your game crash while sleeping at night because I am retarded as fuck.
- And other few bugs I forgot
Known issues:
- Some night animations have a volume very low, I suggest you increase the Sound Volume bar if you don't hear sound.
- Two final scenes don't have any dialogue because I'm too fucking hungry and I'm sick of that fucking update and I want to eat a kebab and chill in front of Doctor House so just close your eyes and make the dialogues yourself

How are Olivia's missions done? , I have 33 beers bought but I don't know what I should do
Vinkawa
Make sure you play on v2.2.1 bug fix. If that's already the case, download the little "beer patch" on my Discord in announcements channel.

I'm stuck. Four says progress with one, one says progress with two, two says progress with another, and three says back to tedious. All interactions with three just repeat though. Area in forest says progress with three as well. It bugged or am I missing something?
