Hey everyone! This update focuses primarily on improving the user interface.

🔹 New Icon Style
We’ve redesigned the in-game iconography to feature a cleaner, more minimalistic art style with thick lines. Our old pixel art icons—while nostalgic—often lacked clarity, so we made this change to improve readability during gameplay. Don’t worry though: we’re keeping the pixel art for items, characters, and maps! This marks the beginning of a larger UI overhaul we plan to roll out over the coming months.

🃏 Character Selection Revamp
We’ve introduced a brand-new character selection screen! It’s designed to feel like you're choosing from a deck of cards. Give it a try and let us know what you think—whether it’s awesome or awful, your feedback helps us keep improving.

🏰 New UI: Fodker’s Defenders Guild
We’ve also updated the interface when you visit Fodker’s Defenders Guild. It should now feel more cohesive with the rest of the new UI direction.

🐞 Bug Fixes & Known Issues
This update includes several background fail-safes and minor bug fixes to improve stability.
One persistent issue—Invalid Frustum—continues to pop up occasionally. Unfortunately, we still haven’t been able to reproduce it ourselves. If you’ve noticed when or how it happens, please reach out. Any details would help a ton!

Thanks for all your support and feedback!
