Added Sanity Mechanic

We are thrilled to introduce a new sanity meter to the game. It depletes as players experience the terrifying events in the game world. To maintain your composure, you'll need to replenish your sanity with Calming Pills, adding a new layer of strategy and challenge.

UI Changes

Both the main menu and in-game interfaces have been fine-tuned to align seamlessly with the new gameplay. Additionally, we've added a Change Log feature to the main menu for your convenience.
