• Patch notes 1.2.1: Small adjustments - 13 May 2026

  Hi everyone,I've just released a small patch following your feedback on the new intensity level feature.Changes:Increased the speed boost provided by the Aggressive modeAdded a slight speed bonus for smaller players, to better reflect real-life badmintonI also updated the demo.A lot of players mentioned that the Aggressive mode did not feel different enough from the Default mode, so this update should make the gameplay impact much more noticeable.I've also seen feedback about the stamina consumption being too high in Aggressive mode.
