In this demo update, we focused on smoothing progression, fixing localization issues, and adding clearer reward feedback. Main changes: rebalanced the stage 15 boss so progression no longer stalls as hard there; fixed a bug where the tutorial could appear in the wrong language even when the game language was set correctly; adjusted early resource upgrade pacing so the first steps after unlocking resources feel smoother; fixed pet placement in boss battles so pets no longer overlap the boss; added a small claim reward effect so resources briefly rise from claimed tiles before flying into the matching top bar icon. Thanks for playing, and please keep sending feedback.
