Hey again, everyone! As we move closer to the beta release, I've been pouring in hours to refine and enhance 'Blinny'. This time, the focus was on laying down some core features and ensuring the game runs seamlessly for you.

First up, guaranteeing your Blinny’s adventures and style choices aren't lost. Persistent data was successfully integrated. This means your game progress and customizations are saved, ensuring a smooth gameplay experience every time.

I've introduced daily missions to add some variety. Also, check out the shop – you can now personalize your Blinny's home and add accessories like glasses or hats.

While setting up these features, I encountered a few data hurdles which took up more time than expected. Development is always a learning curve, and I'm embracing every bit of it. I'm eager for you to try out this vertical slice of 'Blinny'.

Stay tuned for more updates and remember, your feedback is invaluable. Join my journey and stay updated on Instagram @Blinny_GameDev.
