Currently, some players are experiencing black screen issues. We are working hard to resolve them. If you encounter this problem, please provide the Player.log ​ file located in the following directory:

Send it to our email: foolishnova@qq.com. This will help us gather information about the cause of the black screen and assist in resolving the issue.

We welcome any suggestions or feedback you have about our game. Your input is incredibly valuable for guiding our future optimizations. The purpose of releasing the demo is to gather player experiences. Our game is not a traditional numeric progression-based design but rather aims to grow with player experience. We look forward to exploring this journey together with all of you.
