- [p]Tutorial Area Fully Upgraded
We heard your feedback about the steep learning curve, so we completely rebuilt the starting experience. We've constructed an entirely new tutorial area.

- [p]Parkour Area Debut
We've carved out dedicated parkour areas within the dream world. Here, you'll face continuous platform jumping, precise timing challenges, and interconnected action sequences. Collapsing beams, swaying ruins, and fleeting footholds—every step demands your full concentration. Successfully traversing these areas not only yields generous rewards but also serves as the ultimate test of your skills.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
- [p]Avian Monster Dimension Arrives
Hold your pillow tight and prepare for aerial assaults! These flying enemies, each with distinct forms and behaviors, will bring an entirely different combat experience. Swift and skilled at diving attacks, they'll test both your reflexes and strategy.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
- [p]Ambient Creatures Added
The corners of the dream world are filled with tiny lives and strange sights. We've added many non-hostile ambient creatures—beneath fractured beams and beside abandoned pottery, you'll spot small critters scurrying about. Most are harmless, yet unsettling enough to keep you on edge.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
- [p]Character and Scene Audio Expanded
Character actions and environmental interactions now feature richer, more fitting audio details. Scene ambience has been expanded and optimized, with each area possessing its own unique soundscape—including the surging tides washing over ruined beaches, the low whisper of wind through broken walls, and more. Combined with the music, these elements weave together a more immersive and oppressive dream atmosphere.[/p][p][/p]
