Level Fun Smarter creature spawning — Partygoers and Balloons now spawn near the players instead of randomly across the map. The pressure builds where you actually are. Tighter pacing on Nightmare — First creatures arrive much sooner. The early-run lull is gone. Partygoers spawning from pipes is back — They properly emerge from pipe entrances again. Creature AI Smarter behavior near hidden players — Creatures are less likely to camp around your hiding spot. If they can't reasonably catch you, they'll move on instead of standing around. Smiler movement — Slightly tuned for better reaction windows.
