> PATCH: STARTUP OPTIMIZATION > Profiling boot sequence... > Deferring non-critical subsystems... > Preloading font assets... > Boot time reduced. CHANGES Faster game launch -- audio, achievements, and save listing no longer block startup Fonts preloaded to eliminate rendering flash Steam achievement sync batched into a single call Neural Weight multiplier now uses diminishing returns (sqrt scaling) -- early prestiges feel stronger, late-game snowball is tamed TECHNICAL Tone.js lazy-loaded on first interaction instead of at boot Save directory resolution moved from synchronous to async IPC Window uses ready-to-show pattern to prevent blank flash > The system boots faster now. > What you do with that time is up to you.
