🐕 PugRace Evolution - Development Update

New Features & Fixes

Hey everyone! We've been working hard on improving the game experience based on internal testing. Here are the latest updates:

🎁 Daily Rewards System Overhaul

We've completely reworked how the daily rewards system functions:

• Sequential Progress: Rewards must now be claimed in order (Day 1, Day 2, etc.).  You can't skip ahead or claim multiple days at once
•  Your Own Pace: Take as many days as you need to complete the 30-day cycle - the system tracks your progress, not calendar days
•  Streak System: Maintain your streak by claiming a reward each day. Miss a day? Your streak resets, but your cycle progress continues where you left off
• No More Exploits: Fixed an issue where players could claim all past rewards at once after being away for multiple days

💰 Purchase Confirmation Modal

Added a safety feature for slot purchases:

• Confirmation Required: When unlocking a new board slot, you'll now see a confirmation modal showing the exact cost
• Smart Prevention: The purchase button only appears when you have enough coins. No more accidental clicks when you can't afford it
• Clean UI: Modal follows the game's design language with smooth animations

🧹 Code Cleanup

• Removed obsolete files
• Consolidated the game board system

⚠️ Important Note About Game Balance

The game is currently in its testing phase. You may notice that:

• Shop prices might seem unusually high or low
• Production rates may feel unbalanced
• Rewards might appear too generous or too stingy
• Some costs may seem absurd

This is completely normal! We're actively collecting data and feedback to properly balance the game economy. These values are placeholders that we're adjusting based on internal testing metrics, player progression data and community feedback.

Your feedback is invaluable in helping us find the sweet spot for game balance.        

Please don't hesitate to report any pricing or progression issues you encounter - it's exactly the kind of information we need!

What's Next?

We're continuing to focus on core gameplay improvements and UI polish. The next update will likely include:

• More visual feedback for player actions
• Additional quality-of-life improvements
• Continued balance adjustments based on your feedback

Thanks for your patience and support during this early development phase!

Happy merging! 🐕✨
