Ohh wow, I did not know that about the sounds! That is amazing! :-O
The esc / saving was mainly just cause I usually end up feeling "finished" at the menu before you start the new day, lol. And then I feel committed once I start a new day and quit from the book, haha. It's honestly not an issue or anything, I just found it curious that there wasnt a "save and exit" option in between the days. Either way, I'm enjoying this game so much. It's such a great way to decompress. + All those envelopes and cute stamps make me want to send letters, lol
