Sometimes the game needs to read numbers from text (like "2.5"). In some regions, the decimal point is written as . (dot), while in others it's , (comma).

- If your machine is experiencing lag issues, please take a look here. - 23 November 2025
If your machine is experiencing lag, lower the resolution and reduce the in-game frame rate. Make sure not to set the frame rate to unlimited — it will eat up CPU like crazy. Doing this will greatly improve smoothness. This is something I discovered in the past few days. For the old version, you can use this workaround for now. I will directly fix this issue in the new demo version
- The developer hasn’t disappeared! Demo Update Coming in Early December! - 10 November 2025
First of all, thank you so much for playing my game! Since the demo was released in August, many players have shown great support and really enjoyed it. However, since this is my first time developing a game, I discovered that the original framework was difficult to expand (I actually scrapped and rebuilt the game three times before the demo went live). To make the game more complete, I decided to rebuild it entirely once again.But don’t worry — the game is now much more polished and offers a higher level of playability! I’ll finish the updated demo as soon as possible and post another announcement when it’s ready. I hope you’ll give the new demo a try once it’s released!Working full-time by day, making games by night — I really need to step on the gas now, sob sob 😭
- Announcement on Game Progress Revamp - 9 September 2025
After the revamp was completed the week before last, the goal was to make the game more roguelike. However, it turned out that the gaming experience became worse.Therefore, the game process has been overhauled and reconstructed. After two weeks of exploration, we have found the right direction. The game will now shift to an idle treasure-hunting style.The major changes include: introducing an in-game currency system. Players can use currency to purchase one-of-three skill enhancements and buy targeted attribute upgrades.I will speed up the development progress. Stay tuned!
