This update focuses on improving overall play comfort and reinforcing the gameā€™s core direction around merge-focused gameplay.

Wind System Expansion and Control Improvements

  • A new top-to-bottom wind has been added. This was introduced because it better supports the merge-centric gameplay flow.

  • Steam Deck key bindings have been updated accordingly.

  • For balance reasons, using vertical wind (up and down) now consumes more Wind Gauge than horizontal wind.

Turtle, Slot, Spawn, and Merge Balance Adjustments

  • Minor balance adjustments have been made across turtle model size, slot behavior, spawning, and merge-related values.

  • Score gain from merging sea creatures has been increased to 5x per merge, encouraging deeper merge-focused play.

  • To compensate for this change, base score values have been reduced.

  • These adjustments aim to create a clearer sense of progression while maintaining overall balance and field stability.

Jellyfish Special Creature Feature Added

  • While a Jellyfish exists on the field, the score is multiplied by three.

  • Detailed explanations for sea creatures will be provided later through the upcoming Encyclopedia UI.

UI and Visual Effect Improvements

  • The top slot UI images have been updated.

  • When picking up an item that adds a sea creature to a slot, a dedicated visual effect is now played to improve clarity and feedback.

Future Update Direction

1. Major UI Improvements

  • The UI will be significantly reworked to make gameplay feedback and system explanations clearer.

  • This is a large structural task and may take a considerable amount of time.

2. Advanced Sea Creature Logic

  • Some sea creatures, such as Squid, Harbor Seals, and Pufferfish, currently have relatively simple behavior.

  • Their logic and interactions will be gradually enhanced in future updates.

3. Original Mode Addition

  • An Original Mode is planned that recreates the feel of the classic water ring-toss toy.

  • This mode aims to replicate the original ring-toss experience as closely as possible.

Player feedback continues to play an important role in shaping Turtle Game. Development may be gradual, but the game will continue to move forward in a clear and deliberate direction.

Thank you for your continued support. šŸ¢šŸ’™
