Update containing the new intro, feedback adjustments and throw Shimmers pouch
New introI did a lot of work for the new intro, addressing feedback received concerning the previous intro not addressing the flower enough, and being confusing. I have taken the opportunity to also address some lore. I still need to polish several details and some of the intro is placeholder art, but it should communicate clear enough. New Player Shimmer animations.Most of Shimmers main sprites have been replaced, I think I am starting to zero in on the final version. New throw Shimmer animations, she now also has a nest in your home.Improved Shimmers garden and prepped it for future events.A lot of bug fixes and adjustments from the feedback I received. I still am working through the list but I think I fixed the most important ones. I also spend time trying to get the Linux build to work, I am getting close but the current version has horrible video quality and first needs to be fixed.Also the forced Unity update caused movie clip problems and needed time fixing. the movies should work properly now, the short flash that sometimes seems to appear will be addressed in the future. If you run into a bug or if something bothers you, you can reach out to me on BSKY dm, mail or Discord and give me some time to look into it.

Update several bugs and details
The bug of the cave creature not visible, but cave bells confirm the creature should be in the location, should be fixed. The pause menu opening into start menu should no longer occur. Sign posts have texts when you hoover over them. Some spelling mistakes have been corrected and many other smaller details. I have also changed some settings concerning the Omnomni clip breaking the game on steam deck, but am unsure if these really chance the game getting stuck.Read full article on Community Announcements (shimmerspawn)
