[h2]Quality of Life Improvements[/h2]

We are always looking for ways to enhance your experience in Spirit City: Lofi Sessions. This update includes several quality of life improvements:

Daily Spirit Credits: Players can now earn Spirit Credits at a regular pace. Daily tasks will now grant 100 Spirit Credits per completion, in addition to exp. Plus, there's now a visual indication the moment a daily mission is completed, so you never miss a beat!

Habit and Journal Drag and Drop: Easily rearrange the order of your Habits and Journal entries with a new drag and drop feature.

Rebindable Hotkeys: You can now rebind the hotkey for the UI visibility and a hotkey to quickly mute all soundscapes and music

Improved Memory Usage: Various improvements under the hood should improve loading times when launching the game.

[h2]Bug Fixes:[/h2]

• Fixed an issue where using a game controller when the game is unfocused would keep capturing inputs, and potentially open menus in-game
  
• Fixed an issue in the Journal tool where the journaling prompts were not translated properly
  
• Found a work-around for an issue where users typing with an IME keyboard (such as for Japanese, Chinese, and Korean) had issues typing more than a few lines of text inside a Journal entry. See forum post for more details on a work-around here. We'll still be looking into this issue as we know this work-around is not the best, but we hope it can help some people temporarily for now.

Thank you so much for your time!
And look forward to our big free update at the end of May!

It's been one month since we launched Spirit City: Lofi Sessions!
It's been a whirlwind of excitement! We're getting so many amazing comments and feedback from players.
We're happy to announce that Steam Community Items are now available, that means you can start earning trading cards while playing!
Community Items available:

• 6 Trading Cards
  
• 6 Emojis
  
• 4 Backgrounds
  

Additionally if you collect all 6 trading cards you will earn a unique badge!
We hope you enjoy them, and look forward to a free content update coming at the end of May!

In this update, we're introducing a new way for the app to use less resource when not in-use.

In addition to the Unfocused FPS cap in update 1.1.0, we've now added a way to automatically reduce the game FPS to a minimum when it is completely minimized. You should be able to see this effect by monitoring your CPU/GPU usage when the game is minimized.

Also, this update let's you rebind the key input of your choice for the UI visibility toggle. You can do this in the Settings - General tab, in-game. You can expect more rebindable shortcuts like these in future updates.

Finally, this update has yet another change on the saving events to help those that we're impacted by progression data loss. We got positive feedback from some players that were affected in the past, and hoping that this over for good!

Thank you so much!

As we're still getting a low amount of reports from players losing their progression save files, here is a tentative fix. This hotfix adds nothing else but should improve the reliability of save events and prevent those mishaps.

If you have been impacted by it, please reach out on our official Discord forum for help.

Thank you for your patience and understanding! :)
