Hey Holey players! 👋

I'm pushing out Demo Update 0.0.77 with a mix of visual improvements, gameplay refinements, and critical bug fixes. Your feedback from the demo has been invaluable, keep it coming!

NEW FEATURES

Object Throwing: You can now throw objects farther than before. Use it to your advantage!

IMPROVEMENTS

Hole Creature Rework: The creature lurking in the hole has been completely redesigned with a brand new look and a proper attack animation.
Keypad Puzzle Visibility: Keypad puzzle codes are now more visible throughout the world, and their spawn rate on main paths has been increased so you're never left searching for too long.
Map Selection Moved to In-Game UI: Map selection has been moved from the main board to an in-game UI screen launched after startup, giving you a smoother and more intuitive experience. Difficulty options have also been reduced to 2 for better balance.

BUG FIXES

Escape Key Conflict Fixed: Non-closeable UI panels could previously be bypassed by pressing Escape to open the pause menu, which caused various issues. This has been resolved.
Item Drop in Invisible Zone Fixed: Items could fall into an invisible area near the pickup zone. A collider has been added to prevent this.
Input System Freeze Fixed: A lockup occurred when a gamepad and keyboard/mouse were active simultaneously. The entire input system has been rewritten from the ground up to resolve this.

Thanks for playing the demo and helping me shape Holey into the best version it can be! If you encounter any issues or have suggestions, drop them in the discussions. I read every post.
