Update 0.21 is here!

Thank you for your reviews and ideas. This update answers the two things you told us most: "the game does not understand me" and "what do I do now?"

🎤 Microphone Setup

- A new screen when you start a game: a live sound bar, a noise check, and a quick test — say "I want to learn English"

- If your microphone is weak, the game tells you and listens more gently. You always know why.

- Esc stops listening at any time. You are never stuck.

🗣️ Speaking is your XP

- Every sentence you say correctly gives XP. New sentence: 10 XP. Your level now shows how much English you speak!

- Daily goal: say 20 sentences a day → +50 XP and +10 gold

- Streak: play every day and watch the 🔥 grow. See it all on your report page.

💬 Full sentences, not two words

- 523 short answers are now real sentences. "Water, please." is now "Just a glass of water for me, please."

- Bar, Pharmacy, Customs, Greetings, Accessory Shop, Restaurant and Phone rooms — all new voices.

🎭 Character Shop

- 99 characters! 16 are free. Special looks cost gold — the JOKER costs 5,000.

- The Character Master changes your look and your name. Free for the looks you own.

🔨 Crafting Masters

- Two kitchens, four shamans (Koko, Lulu, Tiki, Zaza), a Blacksmith, an Archaeologist and a Supplier

- 144 potion recipes are new: Sleep Potion = milk + lavender + honey. Focus Potion needs coffee!

- Big potions need more ingredients, and crafted relics now sell for a good price.

🗿 Idiom Caves

- Finish a teacher's set: applause, gold, and the teacher says goodbye

- New Idiom Book: every phrase you say turns black. Collect all 300!

- Your lesson list shows on screen while you learn.

💾 Your saves are safe

- The game no longer asks you to delete old saves. From now on, updates keep your progress.

- Shop lists are wider (3 columns), and many small fixes.

Have fun and keep talking! ❤️
