This is the first major update for At the Mountains of Friendship. The general new content in an update should be a new girl, and some kind of new feature. For 1.1 that's Sarah, and leaders.
Meet Sarah! As a new character, she's available at first to $10 patrons. That bumps Lydia down to the $5 slot. When 1.2 comes out, Lydia will be free, Sarah will be in the $5 slot, and the next new girl will be in the $10 slot. Sarah's fetish is anal, and her general mechanical identity is being a buffer for dog lovers, like Lydia was a buffer for cat lovers.
Also in this update is leaders. You can now assign a girl to be the leader after the first boss. Having a girl as a leader will give a static effect that takes place in all battles. Each girl has a different one. Maya for example makes all girls love all pets. While Dominique lets you use EXP boosts as many times as you want per turn, not just 4 times. Leaders give a whole new element to building your team and finding new strategies!
The last important thing in this update is being able to quit the game and load where you left off. The games At the Mountains of Friendship takes inspiration from are mostly multi-player, where saving isn't a thing. But since this a single player game, there's no reason not to have an auto save. So here it is!
