Moonlight Peaks Patch 1.1.41: Storage & Embroidery QoL
Version 1.1.41 rolled out on Steam July 15, 2026 as the big mid-launch quality pass — House Storage from the whole plot, earlier embroidery dates, restored missing saves, and a long list of progression fixes.
On July 15, 2026, Little Chicken and Marvelous shipped version 1.1.41 on Steam first, with Switch, Switch 2, and Google Play Games builds following on their own certification timelines. This is the patch most players feel in daily play: storage, embroidery dating, loading times, and a pile of story soft locks.
Headline quality-of-life
- House Storage anywhere on the plot — open storage from barns and greenhouses, not only inside the cottage.
- Quick Transfer — move stacks to and from House Storage without the old inventory shuffle.
- Faster scene loads — improved loading times across all scenes.
- Earlier embroidery — the embroidery table unlocks sooner, which also lets embroidery-date NPCs be invited earlier. Details on the embroidery page.
- Clearer tree seasons — tree seeds show produce seasons instead of the tree’s growth seasons.
- More Vampire Sketches — additional Brook sketches added.
Progression and soft-lock fixes
- Restored missing save files (separate from corruption caused by quitting mid-save).
- Crow Introduction, Dead Crops, and Keg cutscenes no longer block other on-plot cutscenes.
- Loveage Gift Exchange dialogue and Seaweed gifting soft locks fixed (further gift-exchange work continued in 1.1.45).
- Kim’s first heart event no longer pauses time until restart.
- Nokturna card rewards correctly grant when you leave after inspecting the board at match end.
- Pink Grove flower soft locks, Orlock bench interaction, Aras heart-event sparkles location, and Hellkitten dig spots near shore fixed.
- House upgrades no longer wipe Storage Crate contents or strip decoration quality.
Steam Deck and gamepad notes
Steam-only fixes in this wave include gamepad interaction recovery when the hidden cursor hovered UI, Steam Deck defaulting back to keyboard/mouse, and binding multiple actions to one input. Revisit the controls guide if your Deck still feels stuck in pointer mode after updating.

July 21’s 1.1.45 then handled remaining quest recovery and farm performance. Track open platform gaps on known issues and the full archive on all news.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the biggest QoL change in 1.1.41?
House Storage can be opened from the entire farm plot — including barns and greenhouses — and items move with Quick Transfer, which cuts back-and-forth trips to the cottage.
Did embroidery unlock earlier?
Yes. Embroidery unlocks sooner so NPCs who share embroidery dates become available for dating earlier. See the embroidery guide for how the activity fits romance pacing.
Did 1.1.41 restore missing saves?
The patch restored missing save files reported after launch. It does not recover files corrupted by force-closing mid-save — avoid quitting while the game is writing.
