0.4B92 What's New

The holiday break has concluded, and all development work has resumed normal progress.

In this version, we have expanded the initial map size from 9 to 25, greatly increasing the explorable area.

In the next version, we will continue to expand the explorable area, enrich terrain and scene details, and fully remake all animation frames of the player character to further optimize character animation performance and control feel.
