💚 New Level 8 Character

• Added a new Level 8 gremlin.
• Added walking, sleeping, music, anger, jumping, and interaction animations.
• Locked characters now appear as mysterious black silhouettes.

✨ New Progression System

Every character now progresses separately:

• Care for the Level 1 character to unlock Level 2.
• Care for the Level 3 character to unlock Level 4.
• Care for the Level 5 character to unlock Level 6.
• Care for the Level 7 character to unlock Level 8.

Feeding, caring, and spending time together fill the progression bar of the selected character.

💬 Smarter Gremlin Chat

• Added a vocabulary database containing 38,977 words.
• Added 115 meanings for modern slang terms.
• The gremlin understands words such as cringe, swag, based, and overpowered.
• Replies depend on the selected gremlin personality.
• You can connect your own API key and a compatible AI model.
• AI receives only relevant dictionary entries, never the entire database.
• If AI is unavailable, the gremlin automatically replies using the local system.
• You can create custom questions, answers, and general replies.

✂ Rock, Paper, Scissors

Write “rock,” “paper,” or “scissors” as a single Twitch chat message to play with the gremlin.

• The gremlin makes a completely random choice.
• Wins and losses trigger different animations.
• The minigame has a separate cooldown.
• It does not use Channel Points.
• Game results do not create on screen messages.

🌌 Cosmic Theme

A new “Space” theme has been added:

• Cosmic nebula in the background.
• Moving stars and falling meteors.
• A new appearance for buttons, panels, and tabs.
• A festive theme activates automatically on a secret special day.

🖥 OBS and Effects

• Improved automatic OBS reconnection.
• Chaos settings now allow you to choose when effects can be played.
• The “Grab” function no longer depends on Chaos mode.
• The secret effect cannot be launched accidentally through testing.
• Fixed an issue that caused the window to expand endlessly.
• Reduced unnecessary resource usage.
• Fixed a line that could remain after moving the character.

🎨 Interface

• The character section is now divided into a character list and settings.
• Added complete character cards.
• Added a heart button for supporting the project.
• Redesigned the update page.
• Improved window and interface stability.

Let even more gremlin chaos appear on your desktop!
