Patch Notes for the Heart Build: 2.10 Status: Final candidate (but life never really finalizes, does it?)
The hallway collision system has been softened. You can now pass by her locker without triggering the "stiff shoulders & sudden interest in floor tiles" animation. However, brushing sleeves still activates a 0.5-second slow-motion zoom on her wristwatch. This is not a bug. It's a feature.

New voice line added when you hold the door for her: "You don't have to do that every time." (Said softly. Tone: annoyed but fond. )
The cafeteria lunch tray balance has been reworked. You will no longer spill orange juice when she sits across from you. (Mostly.) This is not a bug
It's the save file you carry into the sequel.
Main Quest: "Survive Senior Year" – No changes. The final boss (college applications) has been buffed again. Good luck.
But here’s the final, unpatched truth:
