Back to Freedom [v.0.35] (Eng) (2021) [HTML] [Bald Games]

0.35 - 2025-04-12
- Added the new achievements system. You can access the achievements menu in the sidebar above the gallery link. The achievement system is the last major feature to be added before the end of the main story.
Note1: Achievements will work like the gallery. Once you unlock an achievement, it will remain unlocked even after you restart the game. Please note that if your browser cache is cleared for any reason, you will lose the unlocked achievements, just as happens with the gallery.
Note2: The achievement system has been a feature planned since the first versions of the game, but I waited for the game to reach a sufficiently advanced point in the story for them to make sense. It's a feature that fits perfectly with the game's multi-playthrough style, and I hope this encourages players to try new playthroughs and routes.
Note3: Some achievements can be unlocked by loading your saves, but most of them will only be possible after starting a new game since the code is spread across different points in the game.
Note4: Unlike most games that contain this feature, in Back to Freedom, you will have some kind of reward for each achievement unlocked. Sometimes, you'll have interesting stories related to the type of achievement, the development of the game, personal stories of this developer, or the girls present in the game. While achievements are not required to enjoy the game, the goal is to reward the most dedicated players in some way.
- Added 59 achievements to the game (more to come in the future).
- Added a new cheat code available to $20 supporters and higher to unlock every achievement.
- Modified the beginning of two Adriana scenes on days 3 and 7 with new clips and dialogue to adjust to a related achievement.
- Added profiles for all side characters in the gallery. Just like the main character's profiles since the last version, the side character's profiles are dynamic and are updated as you progress through the story, giving you more information about them and how you interacted with them and shaped their stories. You can also check when those characters are pregnant. In "Others" gallery, hover over their names (or tap it if you're on mobile) and the new profiles will be shown.
- Added links to shoot the enemy's body parts to all shootout minigames. Before this change, you only had the option to shoot legs via a normal link.
Note: Note: While on PC, the scope cursor and the large screen make the minigame experience enjoyable, on mobile, touching small parts of the image with your fingers may not be as simple. That's why I added links as an alternative way to shoot down targets. Now, players can choose the way that suits them best.
- Made minor adjustments to texts in the stats screen and in the gallery. Also, changed the way the hearts in the dialogues are shown. These changes aim for the best possible visualization on mobile.
- Removed the previous default route for air ducts. Now, the only possible route is the one that reveals Mr. Willis' secret.
- Added a note to the tooltips for air ducts and Nina's massage so that players can better understand how those tooltips work.
- Added a link to a FAQ next to the changelog link on the left sidebar. The FAQ is intended to provide some basic information about features and certain parts of the game. I hope that will prevent new players from flooding the forums and Discord with the same questions every time an update is released.
- Fixed a bug in one of Gina's scenes in the gallery.
- Fixed some typos reported by players.

0.34 - 2025-03-15
- 1 new in-game day.
- 16 new scenes.
- 203 new clips.
- Two new pregnancies possible.
- Love, Lust, and friendship stats are now capped at 99.
- Corruption stat is now capped at 300.
Note: Since the maximum obtainable value of each stat will never exceed 99 until the end of the game, there is no reason to let players edit their stats to 4 or even 5-digit numbers, polluting the game's interface. Now, every time your stat exceeds 99, the game will set it to 99. This is a purely aesthetic change since numbers higher than this do not benefit the player in any way and only serve to ruin the positioning of some pictures in the stats window. The corruption stat is the exception and will be capped at 300.
- Completely redone the main characters' profiles. Now, instead of brief information about characters, you will have updates as you progress through the story, giving a summary of what happened to each of the characters up to the most recent point in the game. To avoid cluttering the interface, I made it so that the information is only displayed when you hover over the characters' images.
- Added heart icons to dialogues during scenes from days 1 to 29. Now the icons are available in all story mode scenes, plus the gallery.
- Slightly changed the hover effect of most links.
- Removed the requirement to make Jillian climax three times on day 12 to access one of her scenes on day 13. Now you only need to have unlocked one of her scenes on days 11 or 12.
Note: The other requirements remain the same.
- Changed the autowin feature for some minigames in the cheats page to instantly finish them after using the cheat. Before this change, players had to wait for timed minigames like shooting and dancing to finish even after using the cheat. Please report if you find any bugs when using the autowin cheat.
Note: As warned on the cheats page, DON'T use auto-win cheats at any point in the game other than during the corresponding minigame or right after its end.
- Fixed a bug in the casino on day 14 that would sometimes prevent players from proceeding after being taken to Shalina's office.
- Fixed some minor bugs reported by players.

0.33 - 2025-01-23
- 1 new in-game day.
- 16 new scenes.
- 166 new clips.
- Three new pregnancies possible.
- Added an icon in the upper left corner of each character's avatar on the stats screen to indicate if the character is pregnant.
- Added heart icons to some dialogues during scenes. The feature is enabled by default, but you can disable it in the options menu. For now, the hearts icons can be seen in scenes from days 30 to 37.
- Made massive changes in variables to make the code cleaner. Over 1300 variables were eliminated.
Note: As was widely reported before launch, these changes may affect old saves made in the middle of the day. It is highly recommended that you only load old saves made during the MC's sleep or right after he wakes up in story mode. From day 37, saves can be made at any point of the day and loaded without issues. Also, if you are starting a new game, you can save and load at any point as usual.
Note2: Since this change modified variables in almost every part of the game, there may be some bugs. Please report any bugs you find.
- Replaced the timed macro while typing during work with a video.
- Fixed a bug with the scope cursor during some sniper quests.
- Made some quality-of-life changes in the sandbox mode:
* The navigation system is now based on maps instead of image links. There's a map for the city and another one for the house.
* On the map, in addition to navigating to any place in the game easily, there's also a clock icon to advance time at any moment.
* You no longer have to pay weekly bills.
* Replaced most of the timed events with instant versions of the same events like bathing, watching movies, reading books, and others.
* Moved the phone and schedule links from the left sidebar to the main screen on the sandbox mode. This will leave the sidebar cleaner and make it easier for players to access the sandbox-only features when they really need it.
Note: Although there are no new content additions to the sandbox mode, I hope these changes will make this mode smoother for players who enjoy it.

0.32 - 2024-12-05
- 1 new in-game day.
- 10 new scenes.
- 111 new clips.
- Added a new color for some female side characters' dialog. Now we have three colors like the men's ones.
- Added a one-time-use free cheat button on the cheats page. The free cheat will give players +3 to all stats plus $500.
Note: Some free players have complained that some stat requirements are too high. While all of the game’s requirements are achievable for free players, I understand that it can be frustrating to miss out on certain routes because of a few bad choices. So I've chosen to give everyone a free cheat option instead of lowering the requirements. Hopefully, this will make the beginning of the game smoother for some players without diminishing the importance of supporter-exclusive cheats, which allow them to freely increase or decrease their stats at any point in the game and choose the route that suits them best.
- Added a Corruption Guide to the official game guide for supporters.
Note: This is a long-requested feature from supporters that I finally had time to implement. Since I've added a quality-of-life improvement for free players (free cheat) it's only fair that my supporters get an improvement of equal value. Hope everyone will be happy.
- Fixed a minor bug that won't remove anal gel from inventory when used in some scenes. If you find more item bugs, please report them.

0.31 - 2024-10-21
- 1 new in-game day.
- 10 new scenes.
- 110 new clips.
- A new main quest event.
- Made a small change at the very beginning of the game to better reflect the events of day 35.
- Fixed a minor bug when you choose to give the diamond earrings and necklace to Sarah on day 17.
- Fixed a typo bug in the variable that tracks if Lana is a pornstar that was blocking players to unlock two of her scenes on day 34.

0.30 - 2024-09-09
- 1 new in-game day.
- 10 new scenes.
- 102 new clips.
- Another pregnancy possible.
- A new main quest event.
- Slightly changed Liya's first encounter on day 23 to make you meet her after winning the semifinal even if you don't meet the requirements for her scene.
- Added a tooltip after discovering Reed's office password to avoid misleading players into thinking they need to memorize that number.
- Fixed a bug that led to Martina's second scene on day 32 when it shouldn't have.
- Fixed a bug on day 29 that wouldn't unequip the car in use after selling it to the mechanic if it was damaged by Emily.
- Fixed Sarah's scene 3 not being properly unlocked in the gallery for some players.
- Fixed a bug on day 30 that changed the choice of company security equipment to the balanced one even if the player had previously chosen another quote.
Note: You need to load a save before work on day 30 to fix it.

0.29 - 2024-07-21
- 1 new in-game day.
- 10 new scenes.
- 115 new clips.
- A new racing event.
- Slightly changed Erica's first meeting to make it easier to get her first scene.
- Slightly changed the fighting minigame. Now Counter and Super Counter no longer cause you damage, making these options more viable during combat and eliminating the possibility of a draw as a result of the fight.
- Since some players still don't understand the progressive hint system in the air ducts on day 18, I added a skip button after 5 failures (the same amount needed to see the complete path in the tooltip).
- Added 13 badass avatar choices for the Supreme Master tier, in addition to the previously existing possibility of a commissioned avatar.
- Changed the design of the in-game Guide. Now you have image links leading to individual pages, just like in the gallery.
- More behind-the-scenes changes to make the code cleaner.
