Demo - Update 3.0.7

In this update, we revisited several card illustrations that felt slightly inconsistent with the rest of the set, giving them a visual touch-up. We also refined part of the card wording to make effects less verbose and easier to understand. To support these changes, several card effects have been reworked to improve clarity and usability.

Additionally, we've reworked cards featuring the Auto() effect, which proved to be harder to understand and use than intended. To address this, we've introduced a new keyword: Recycle(). Recycle works similarly to Auto, but it triggers automatically from the discard pile instead of your hand. As part of this rework, the effects of cards with Auto() have been adjusted accordingly.

GENERAL CHANGES

• Added particle effects for direct attacks against players.

• Made the Cheat, Method, and Setting icons on cards more visible.

• Removed the need to double-click icons in the main menu.
