Hey everyone, it's been a while, but the swimming (also known as walking) mechanics in Deep Sea Valentine finally received another update!

First things first: Yes, sorry, this update DOES NOT work with your existing save files. So if you have to finish anything up, make sure to do it with the previous version of the game!

So why did I do this? I'm glad you asked, because now it's time for good news only! All controls have been significantly improved:

• You can now walk around using the mouse
  
• Keyboard controls got mildly improved
  
• Gamepad controls got a major overhaul & there's glyphs now!
  

All of the above are also being assisted by a much more helpful and intuitive "?" (controls) screen:

Full patch notes

• added mouse movement controls
  
• improved controller and keyboard controls
  
• added controller glyphs throughout the game
  
• added a setting to manually change controller glyphs
  
• outfit changes also change the pixel art now
  
• added a pixel preview to the settings screen
  
• the first dialogue option is no longer selected by default
  
• added outlines to hovered text buttons
  
• the name popup only occurs when the speaking character changes
  
• fixed the side of the speaking character's name when not playing in English
  
• it's now possible to advance the text by scrolling down
  
• made the game less loud
  
• made walls more obvious
  
• added nicer transitions between screens
  
• made the text fade in with an elegant dissolve
  
• added speech pauses
  
• and probably more!
  

I really appreciate the helpful feedback on this humble first game of mine, and I hope these improvements make Deep Sea Valentine an even more enjoyable and relaxing experience for all. 

Thank you so much for your support!
