Despite 1.0 marking a major milestone for the game, we have already started to address some of the feedback that we received following the recent updates. So stay tuned for the 1.1 Quality of Life & UX update 🙂 Beyond that, we have started to tweak and add some more things related to your interactions and relationship with Onbu. This will be our 1.2 update which we are hoping to release later this year.
