[p]Hello everyone, it’s been a while![/p][p][/p][p]Today we're happy to announce the new and improved demo for Wander Stars! [/p][p]The change-log is kind of massive, so we will just list major additions to the game:[/p][p][/p]

[p]Save system (save & quit) added![/p]
[p]Profiles menu added. Name your save file, copy it, rename it again, exciting~[/p]
[p]Cutscene pause AND skip cutscene features added.[/p]
[p]Controller remapping added.[/p]
[p]Big optimization sweep for the core game systems! Since we have to make it run on a Switch, it now runs very efficiently with stable framerates on any platform! Thanks Ricky![/p]
[p]Episode select menu added (only includes episode 1 for the demo).[/p]
[p]Episode 1 challenge mode added! A way harder episode 1 awaits.[/p]
[p]Training menu added! Use your hard earned honor to train permanent upgrades and words.[/p]
[p]Prepare menu added! Prepare your build and word loadout before the episode starts, while you listen to chill music.[/p]
[p]Speaking of music, we added a lot of new music by our composer Sayth Vashra![/p]
[p]New sound effects by our sound designer Severi Ojala and ambience tracks added too![/p]
[p]Cutscenes and dialogue adjustments.[/p]
[p]Combat difficulty rebalancing for normal and challenge mode.[/p]
[p]Steam Deck support, with proper controller glyphs added. (We would love some feedback here, SD users!)[/p]
[p]And a lot of bug fixes.[/p]

[p][/p][p]This is still a game in development of course, so more bugs are to be expected. We’re happy to hear your feedback in the Steam forums or back at our discord.
