Also, a quick update: version 1.0 is planned for September or October. We're hard at work developing and testing, though the exact date isn't locked in yet. You may have noticed the Early Access and demo builds haven't gotten many updates lately — that's because we're pouring everything into the 1.0 content.

- Recent development progress & Early access timlime changed - 23 March 2024
Dear Players, We were delighted to participate in Steam's NextFest in February and receive so much valuable player feedback - thank you to everyone who supported us! However, we also realized that the current game experience is still incomplete for many players. Some gameplay elements are difficult to grasp, and there are issues with content variety and balance that need urgent improvement. After team discussion, if we proceeded with our original Early Access launch in March, the gameplay experience may fail to meet player expectations.

During this extension period, we will focus on improving the following aspects: Description t…
