• In Update 1.04, although the gifts could be opened on January 7th, 2019 (a.k.a. the next update), Update 1.05 was delayed up to 20 days.
  • Turns out, the update was planned to be released late to celebrate 2 years Anniversary of Dread.
• When the game was released, it was very buggy at first, which led to BakonBot rescripting the entire game, taking 11 months to complete the 1.01 update
