Love Maniac 0.3.6 is public
LoveManiac 0.3.6 Public Release is dated 20 October 2026 on the official devlog. Early access for Patreon Galaxy and Nebula tiers was 26 September 2026. If a page still says 0.3.6 is early access only, it is behind the devlog.
Both the store page and the public devlog body were readable in the 23 October 2026 follow-up check. The list below combines those official sources. The devlog includes a waterfall save point, translation updates, TV cassettes, laser mechanics, and an acknowledged gallery crash. It does not give damage values or frame timings.
New in 0.3.6
These additions are listed on the official store page or in the readable 20 October public devlog.
- A full lake interaction with dialogue choices and what the devlog calls endings. No complete ending count is supplied.
- Chara's bikini scene. The exact unlock steps are not on the store page, so they are not invented here.
- Solver and Zukafu costumes, each with its own voice.
- New scenes with Moth and Thenia.
- A new intro, startup animation, and splash art.
- A gallery area for fan art.
- A waterfall save point, updated save-point sprites, translation updates, and costume mini sprites.
- TV cassette playback. Minigames are described as a later addition; cassette acquisition steps have not been checked.
- Moans.
- A new finisher and a targeted laser rework: knives cannot be destroyed before launch, their spawn position changed, and the slash now hits vertically.

Known reports
On 23 October 2026 an itch comment described a 0.3.6 download where Chara's sprite broke up and the battle box and heart disappeared. That is one player report. Team Nebula had not posted a confirmed fix on the pages I read. If it happens, re-extract the RAR and compare the file name with the download table. Save compatibility between 0.3.5 and 0.3.6 is not stated. The wiki's meta.json version field is a file format number, not a promise that old saves load.
The 0.3.6 public devlog separately acknowledges random crashes in the Gallery on some devices. That official issue should not be treated as confirmation of the player's broken-sprite report or as a verified cause for it. Voice acting was already added in 0.3.5; 0.3.6 adds moans and further voice lines. A silent session cannot be diagnosed from its save version alone. See troubleshooting.
