More typos fixed, more bugs fixed related to hard combat mode.
Added in "Difficulty Pill" on hard mode that allows you to revert down to normal mode should you get stuck. Can't be reverted once you do though.

Some sprites got updated and some cat's eye information got corrected.
Once again, like all future updates these are not in any way required to play or enjoy HOME. I'm simply trying to improve the QoL of future downloads as more players submit to me bugs that playtesting and bugtesters didn't find before.

Go ahead and click the download button. It won't click back, I promise.

NOTICE!

If you got here early and you downloaded home only to start up in the zone 0 basement. Just redownload HOME again. Accidentally uploaded the wrong file.
It's 5:20 AM at the time I'm writing this post and I'm a little sleepy.

For all the people running into the bug in HOME. The bug stems from making the wrong choice when you defeat Japhet. This would explain how come I never spotted said bug (I always choose the good choices during my playtesting) so yeah. D: There’s a command that locks the screen inside the bad end command tree (Why tf that command is there, I have no idea) and Yeah. So, I’ve removed said event and gonna upload a fix for said bug right now. Entering zone 3 should now unlock the screen and allow you to continue. (the event that will unlock the screen will be at the entrance of zone 3.) Thanks for your patience.

*Fixed a bug with starting a New Game! If you downloaded a version of HOME earlier and the game crashed upon hitting the new game button, redownload HOME and it should be fixed as of now* The splash screen will now properly indicate that this is 1.2.4

This version DOES NOT include the puppeteer specific bosses like Blight or Ava.
That will be version 1.2.5

Aside from all this, 1.2.4/5 is a version that was made due to my lack of internet and me actually having time to sit down and play HOME. (You know, even though I work on this game a lot I never actually did a full playthrough in months.) and whoo boy, I found a HUGE amount of bugs, issues, old dialogue and other things of the like. There was also the bug from my previous update at the top of zone 4, so that has also been fixed. The rest of these changes were from boredom and me wanting what would be my game to be as full/complete as can be. I know it's not really professional as many people probably don't like playing through the same game multiple times because I keep updating it, but it honestly helps keep me busy and active. Though, I'm really certain this will be the last update that gives the game life. I've played through it twice now in the past months, and I haven't found any bugs or anymore things that I could possibly add to make this the fangame/project that really makes me and fans happy. So, with all that said, I give to you this major update.
