• Control Refinements and Intro Visual Fixes - 27 May 2026

  In this update, we made several small but important improvements focused on control comfort and overall gameplay experience:1- Ground Slide Input AdjustmentWe noticed that using Down + Jump to trigger the ground slide could sometimes cause direction misreads on controllers. To improve the control feel while keeping the existing input intact, we added RT as an additional input option for the ground slide.2- Controller UI Shortcut CleanupWe also removed the mute and screen size toggle shortcuts from controller inputs. This should prevent accidental screen resizing during intense moments, especially while using Fury.3- Intro Fullscreen Text FixWe fixed a fullscreen display issue where some intro text could visually break through the intended layout.And as always, thank you everyone for the continued support. If you are enjoying the game and have a moment to spare, leaving a review really h…
