Hotfix 2 is LIVE | Full Changelog Inside 💞

Hello, Loves 🫶 

Hotifx 2 is now LIVE on Steam/WinStore! This patch addresses an abundance of issues pertaining to dialogue loops and blockers, and also a whole host of fixes across all platforms. More Daemons squashed! 🐜 

Thank you for your patience as we worked to push this update 💞
