- We'll update the story part of the reward events as well within 3,4 months
* Update only file is 1gb in size, and around 570mb of files are the reward rework file so they won't add up to your total game size but just overwrite the pre-existing files.

- This will be expanded as well along with more reward events and more characters.
(Only the basic interactive events so far but quite a few dialogue variations are already
implemented)
5. Lagging issue solution update
! We have updated the renpy engine in order to enhance the performance.
* Since the engine is now a different version, this version can be a bit unstable
and there might be some bugs that we missed during debugging process.

* We'll try to stabilize the engine update within v3.1
