Thank you for waiting!
Until now, updates have been made only through internal testing to establish a stable development environment.
In celebration of the upcoming Steam Next Fest, a lot of new content has been added, so enjoy the new game with your friends! 🥳

[h3]Hi Everyone! 🎉

The game title has been changed from [Project P] to [South Pole Bebop].

The title was chosen to capture the penguin expedition's adventure of finding hope and moving forward with cheerful steps amidst the chaotic situation in the Antarctic, all in the style of jazz. 🎷

Please look forward to future updates as well.

[h3]More powerful AI Bot :robot:[/h3]
Did you find the previous version of AI too easy? The development team has improved the AI. While it may not be a match for skilled players, the AI now moves 'more aggressively.' Even I sometimes lose to the AI when testing...!

[h3]Main menu changes :map:[/h3]
The main menu has been changed for upcoming updates. New UI elements have been added, such as a new title screen and mode selection.

Disappointed because there aren't many visible changes?
Although not visible, there has been a lot of groundwork in v0.5 to add new contents.

What skills appear when selecting a character?
What other game modes are there?
What content does the "Coming soon" sign on the signboard cover?

Development is steadily progressing.
Please look forward to future updates! ːsteamhappyː
