- The Sagittarius puzzle is now complete! You can finally complete the Sagittarius puzzle with quest objectives and a true ending to the demo.
- Updated cutscenes within the castle.
- New dialogue added within the castle. Now you’ll be as confused as Aurora about what’s going on!
- The time turner number bug during the tutorial. This is now corrected, so you’ll know what to press now.
- New Night Sky - Now with an update on the Aurora, and at nighttime it now rains. We did this to help make big variations between the time of day, so it’s more visual.
- Crystals now have a better visual representation of what they mean.

- Time turner has better notifications when using it.
Now go on, explore!
