- Removed Steam Dynamic Cloud feature (Fixed an issue causing unnecessary Steam loading after waking the Steam Deck from sleep).
- Applied global processing for hotkeys/shortcuts.

- Fixed a bug on the Steam Deck where the character selection screen was invisible when using a gamepad.
- Added a game loading screen.
- Fixed a bug in the chest roulette where only items of the tier to be drawn were visible on the reel.
- Moved the FPS counter so it no longer overlaps with other UI elements.
- Adjusted the design of the character selection screen.
