Repeated intro

Hello everyone! First of all, thank you so much for playing the game and sharing your suggestions. I am closely monitoring everything you write in the community hub and on Discord. I read every single Steam review, and I know that the initial grind and pacing felt rough for many of you. I took your feedback to heart, and I hope this update addresses your concerns - if the changes improve your experience, please consider updating your review or leaving your feedback, as it helps the game immensely! I’ve been working non-stop to address your concerns - especially regarding the game's balance and pacing. I am thrilled to announce that update is officially live right now! Here is the complete breakdown of what is changing in the game today: Balancing & Brand-New Quest System A lot of you mentioned that the cashflow from gigs wasn't ideal, forcing too much minigame grinding, and that the scaling with rent felt unbalanced. To fix this, I have completely overhauled the progression system: Gig Leveling System: Base gig income has been rebalanced, but you can now level up your gigs. The more times you complete a specific gig, the higher its level and the better the rewards. Don't worry - all gigs you’ve completed in the past will count toward this progress! In-Game Quests: I am introducing a brand-new Quest System that runs on an in-game weekly and monthly basis. Tasks are naturally integrated into the mechanics (e.g., investing into stocks/crypto, completing gigs, upgrading property, add new contacts, upgrade property or inspecting tenants) and offer big cash rewards or special perks, making them a much more fun alternative to grinding.

addedProperty Maintenance: You can now perform maintenance on your rented properties. It works similarly to reconstruction but allows you to invest a limited amount of money to gradually improve the property's state. If a property is in bad shape, you will need to perform multiple maintenances to get it back to 100% condition.
changedTenant & Apartment Balance: I have slightly decreased the chance of apartment problems and neighbor complaints so they don't feel overwhelming.
changedRent UI Improvement: The scrolling speed in all dropdown menus when putting a property up for rent is now much faster.
fixedProperty UI Bug Fix: Fixed a visual bug that incorrectly displayed "10 children" in the myProperties menu.
addedMore Crypto: Added new cryptocurrencies to trade.
