Changes

* Added new environmental sounds and horror events to several stages.

* Improved the reliability and timing of certain horror events based on player progress.

* Improved the horror presentation and escape sequence near the end of the game.

* Hostile entities now stop pursuing the player after the final objective is completed and the exit is unlocked.

* Clicking an already confirmed sequence object no longer counts as a mistake.

* Clicking walls or floors no longer counts as a mistake.

* Clicking unrelated objects still correctly reduces the remaining mistake count.

* Improved the Book Head penalty. Instead of randomly replacing objects, players must now repeat their most recent correct choices in the same order.

* Added additional guidance for threats encountered later in the game.

* Fixed several issues related to horror event timing and stage progression.

Thank you for playing. I will continue improving the game based on player feedback.
