What's new:

— Improved Dialogue and Texts
The in-game dialogue has been refined for more fluent English, and narration has been given a more literary tone, enhancing the overall narrative and immersion.
— Bug Fixes
Resolved the quirky issue where the main character (MC) referred to  Elina as his sister, even when she was chosen as a childhood friend. Improved the scene advancement buttons in the rest segments. Now, they are more responsive, being activated by clicking on any part of them.
— New Menu System
Introducing  a streamlined and intuitive menu system to enrich your interaction with  characters and objects during certain scenes. Look out for the eye icon in the upper right corner of your screen. When hovered over, interactive characters will be highlighted with an outline. We plan to add a hint or a small tutorial on how to use this new feature in a future update.
— Secrets
Divedeeper into the lore of our world with optional interactive objects. These secrets, indicated by a sparkle next to items, enrich the narrative  and provide insights into other characters. Currently, one secret is  available in the first rest scene with the MC squad. Stay tuned for more  in upcoming updates!
— Dialogue System
Updated to make conversations feel more realistic and engaging. Selected dialogue options now disappear when returning to the choice, preventing repetitive dialogues.
— Visual Enhancements
Refined various visual elements for a more cohesive and appealing aesthetic.
— Performance Optimizations
Under-the-hood improvements for smoother gameplay and enhanced stability.
