Hello, dear players!

Thank you all for your continuous support and critical feedback. We have recently carried out a series of optimizations and updates, aiming to enhance the gaming experience and operational convenience. Here is a summary of the main contents of the recent updates:

🎮 Game Experience Optimization

1. Skip Function for Mini-games

After a success or failure in the mini-game once, the skip button for this mini-game will be unlocked. You can directly skip the current mini-game from the level interface.

2. Optimization of Branch Death Outcomes

After dying due to a branch choice, clicking "Join" will return to that choice node instead of defaulting back to the start of the death level.

3. Main Interface Level Positioning

The "Join" function on the main interface now supports direct positioning to specific levels within a node, eliminating the need to start from the first level of the node again.

4. Enhanced Video Playback Interaction

When playing a video, press the ESC key to bring up the settings interface and pause the video. At the same time, a new "View Archive" button has been added to this interface.

5. Increased ways of advancing the dialogue

Now, when the narration or dialogue is playing, you can use the space bar to quickly switch to the next sentence or continue playing.

🎮 Mini-game Adjustments and Optimizations

6. Optimization of the Magic Cube Mini-game Operation

Further adjust the drag operation to enhance the smoothness and feel of rotation.

7. Rules Adjustment for the Flying Cards Mini Game

Remove the "points deduction for not throwing into the hat" mechanism to reduce the burden of repeated challenges.

8. QTE supports skipping.

After completing or failing a QTE, a skip button will appear for that QTE level.

9. Pac-Man Mini Game Time Adjustment

The initial level time has been increased from the original setting to 60 seconds to help everyone complete the challenge more easily.

⚙ System and Audio-Visual Improvements

10. Audio Settings Upgrade

Adjust the original volume and sound effect switches to a sliding adjustment mode to facilitate everyone's more precise control of the sound.

11. Continuously optimize videos and sound effects

The audio effects and visual effects of some cutscenes have been further optimized to enhance the overall immersion.

We hope these adjustments will make your adventure journey smoother and more enjoyable. If you have any suggestions or questions during your experience, please feel free to let us know through the community or discussion board!

Thank you again for your company and support. Have a great time playing the game!

Best regards from the development team.
