Demo V0.65: Jumpscare and Control Improvements

The Night Portable demo has been updated to V0.65.
This update focuses on jumpscare presentation, controls, and gameplay fixes.

Jumpscare presentation

• Adjusted lighting, facial expressions and movement, camera motion, sound effects, and screen effects.
• Updated how held items are shown during jumpscares so the handheld console and work tools no longer obscure the face.

Control improvements

• Added an option to swap the left and right mouse buttons. Control icons and instructions change to match the setting.
• Dialogue at the start of the game, during inspections, in the tutorial, and in the recollection sequence can now be advanced with either mouse button. Also fixed unintended flash use during dialogue or immediately after closing it.
• Improved flash prompts to make it clearer when the flash is charging and when it is ready to use.

Bug fixes

• Fixed cases where touching an enemy in the handheld shooting game did not cause damage.
• Dialogue, visuals, audio, and effects in the recollection sequence now pause with the game. Also fixed a loss of control that could occur when pausing while receiving an item reward.
• Fixed the pace of the clock display at the start of the recollection sequence, including its timing after resuming from pause.
• Fixed cracks from a previous playthrough remaining on the handheld screen when starting a new game from the title screen, including after completing the demo.
