✨ Polish / Quality of Life
- Button Coloring Fixes – For the primary Modal UI, No/Cancel-related buttons remain red when selected, whereas other Confirm/Yes-related buttons are now green.
- Pressing Back / Circle when on the “Cancel” “No” or last button in the modal UI will cancel the UI, improving UI navigation flow and speed.
- UI Flow – Accepting Youkyuu from the Youkyuu Menu in the Party Menu now defaults to “Yes” instead of “No.”
- UI Flow – Entering a town from the Nation Map will default to “Yes” instead of “No.”
- UI Flow – Entering a labyrinth with selectable areas from the Nation Map will default to “Enter” instead of “Back.”
- UI Flow – When leaving a town, the confirmation UI will default to “Yes” instead of “No.”
- UI Flow – When trying to escape a battle through the Nigeru system, the confirmation UI will default to “Yes” instead of “No.”
- UI Flow – When going through a two-way shortcut in labyrinths, the confirmation UI will default to “Yes” instead of “No.”
🐞 Bug Fixes
- Steam Cloud saves now work properly.
- Fix potential soft-lock in the second half of Meiro 6 (Labyrinth 16 / Post Game).
- Fix a couple of reported typos.
- Fixed the akuma’s “death cloud’s” extra frame, which would appear for a split second after the akuma’s defeat, looking a bit strange.
🧩 Miscellaneous
- Removed a redundant Arawasu tutorial.
- Added a new tutorial design image “Ontological Weaknesses” for the Kanakae tutorial (Slide 2) and made the explanation more intuitive.
📝 Our Biggest Priorities
- PS5 Save Data Transfer from Demo to Full Game.
- We are still working on optimizing the PS4 version.
- We are working on a fix for playing on ultra-wide monitors. 🟡 Update 🟡 — Estimated to be handled in 10-15 calendar days as extra time is needed to test the fix on a real ultra-wide monitor.
- Investigating the Tsuri (Fishing) minigame input issue on some PCs. 🟡 Update 🟡 — This may have to do with disconnecting / reconnecting the controller mid-game or something similar.
- Loading Lore Menu in the Party Menu (Lexicon) is in development.
- Adding a “Fast-Forward” key to some minigames so that they can be played and progressed through more quickly.
- D-pad movement is not implemented smoothly, The L-stick is a perfectly fine input style (and the intended one) that you can work with while the D-pad implementation is being worked on.
❤️ Thank you!
Our earliest adopters (primarily on PS5) are nearing the end of the main campaign (including side content) at 150-200 hours—crazy! We will continue to listen to feedback and work to perfect the Shujinkou experience. Stay tuned for exciting announcements on free additional content soon!
Happy dungeon-crawling! ✨
