ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs ReStory Updates Hub
Launch patch, August 7 known issues, and live patch 1.0.009r from August 11, 2026.
ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs launched on Steam August 6, 2026 with a large day-one patch, then Mandragora followed on August 7 with a public known-issues list and a first update window for the following week. This hub indexes all three waves so wiki readers can tell demo friction, launch QoL, and live progression fixes apart. Always cross-check the Steam news feed for authoritative wording and version strings.
Documented pages on this wiki
| Page | Coverage |
|---|---|
| Launch day patch | Dialogue history, manual save, tutorials, localization, audio, economy, inventory filters, repair slider, solder fixes |
| First update & known issues | August 7 target list: firmware, competition inventory, achievements, IDM / sonic bath, mail, ultrawide |
| Patch 1.0.009r | August 11 PC ship: fixes for the August 7 list plus Eggotchi, Goman, and Brick Game device bugs |
Boot errors (DirectX 11, black screens, Proton) stay on Troubleshooting and System requirements—they are client problems, not the same as firmware job blockers.
Why updates matter for wiki readers
Demo footage may show harsher rent, finicky solder, or missing dialogue history. Launch-day pages assume the August 6 QoL build. If a MyPod or Guitar Legend firmware step errors, confirm you are on 1.0.009r or newer—that was the August 7 known-issues wave, addressed August 11. Route around any remaining blockers with Competition mode and Late game while reporting outliers on Steam.
Launch highlights in plain language
Quality of life: Dialogue history, manual save and quit, clearer tutorials, inventory sorting filters—see Controls and Parts checklist.
Accessibility: Repair precision slider for narrative-first runs (Story choices).
Economy: Softer early operating costs and shipping so Shop management matches the cozy pitch.
Technical: Stabilized solder and denser-board performance; localization and audio rebalancing.
Content: Full branching campaign active—plan finales with Endings and Endings overview.
Post-launch support (August 7–11)
Mandragora reported 15k+ concurrent, ~100k first-day sales, and ~97% positive reviews on August 7, then listed progression bugs for a near-term patch. Version 1.0.009r delivered those fixes on PC August 11. No new devices were confirmed—only an invitation to suggest future gadgets. Read Known issues for historical context and Patch 1.0.009r for what changed live.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for ReStory players.
Where are official ReStory patch notes?
Steam store news and Mandragora or tinyBuild announcements. This wiki summarizes verified features without inventing version numbers.
What is the difference between the launch patch and patch 1.0.009r?
The August 6 launch patch focused on QoL and economy. Patch 1.0.009r on August 11 fixed progression bugs from the August 7 known-issues list, including firmware and competition inventory.
Did the launch patch change save compatibility?
Back up saves before any major update. New QoL fields generally migrate, but treat demo-to-release moves cautiously.
Will this hub list every hotfix?
Major system changes get pages. Tiny hotfixes may roll into existing summaries until Steam publishes notes worth a standalone page.
