changedWhile we feel the day length provides an appropriate tension, we agree that it can feel short at times, especially as you're learning the game. we came up with a "quick and dirty" way to address this, and wanted to provide some resolution for any players (or poetntial players) that found the balance too unforgiving.
changedAs a first attempt to address this, we're increasing the base day length by 15 seconds. This might not sound like much, but we don't want to swing too far without further testing, and 15 additional seconds can equate to several precious tasks in many situations.
addedAdditionally, we're adding another layer to casual mode that will increase the day length by about 20% (another 30 seconds). We hope this provides a "cozier" pacing that reduces some tension during the day without blowing the balance out.
changedPlease note, with these changes, not all day music has been fully reworked, and some songs will start about 30 seconds into the day when playing on casual.

We originally didn't plan to address this yet, but we've getting feedback that days feel too short.
