[h3]Core Update Content:[/h3]
New furniture ‌[Closet]‌, ‌[Shoe Cabinet]‌, and ‌[Hat Stand]‌ now allow equipping costumes for the current character.
After being online for 5 minutes and successfully clearing a level (or subway station) to upload a leaderboard score, players can ‌draw a random costume with a 10-hour cooldown.
During the current testing phase, receive a ‌random costume every 5 minutes at home (up to 10 gifts; this feature may be modified or removed in the future).
This feature has been updated and tested in the beta version. If unable to claim, it means the limit has been reached.
Upgraded Godot Engine from 3.5 to 3.6 and Steamworks from 1.59 to 1.62.

[h2]Important Notes:[/h2]
If encountering ‌Steam connection issues in game, try ‌updating the Steam client.
For users unable to update Steam, switch to the ‌[0.7.32 - Godot 3.5]‌ version via:
Properties → Betas → Beta Participation → 0.7.32 - Godot 3.5
[h3]Do not switch to this version casually for gameplay.[/h3]
This version permanently stays at 0.7.32, lacks costume content and future updates, and switching may clear progress due to data incompatibility.
Further updates for Godot 3.5 are discontinued as GodotSteam now supports 3.6 and newer Steamworks.


[h2]Recent Updates Summary:[/h2]

• Fixed animation issues where characters played movement animations while ordering or restocking.
  
• Updated entry points for Chapters 7 and 8 (not yet open).
  
• Adjusted character movement parameters for slightly faster speed.
  
• Refactored behavior trees for players and NPCs to reduce lag (may cause animation glitches).
  
• Fixed a bug where "Sugar Day" failed to recognize zero-calorie sugar.
  
• Added Steam connection error prompts and updated low-version client warnings.
  

Many players are currently experiencing Steam connection issues after updating to the new version, possibly due to the upgraded Steam SDK and Godot 3.6 engine. The exact cause is still unclear, so we have decided to roll back to the previous version temporarily.

To participate in the costume test, please join the ‌0.7test‌ beta version.

Right-click the game → ‌Properties...‌ → ‌Betas‌ → Select ‌0.7test‌ from the dropdown menu.



[h3]Current known issues in the new version:[/h3]

• Failed to connect to Steam when launching the game (unknown cause).
  
• New furniture items (Wardrobe, Shoe Rack, Hat Stand) purchased in the beta version will ‌not‌ be reset when switching versions.
  
• Character movement speed has decreased. This may be due to differences in the physics engine between Godot 3.5 and 3.6.
  
• Frame rate drops have been observed. This may also be caused by changes in the Godot 3.6 physics engine.
  
• Bear cannot slide thrown boxes in the new version due to physics engine adjustments. This has been fixed in the beta by adjusting parameters.
