Fixed an issue where the "Draw All Maps in Green Forest" achievement could not be completed.
If already achieved, it will be applied in future achievement synchronization.
Sound

Known Issues Being Fixed
Issue during the quest
Issue where the quest cannot be completed
Bug where Ellie can get stuck in Starlit Cave puzzle scenes and cannot escape
Bug where the Quill does not appear in the initial tutorial
When using a controller, some UI displays keyboard buttons
Bug where stirring input was shown as D-pad instead of L-stick on gamepad
Bug where repeatedly pressing buttons after selecting the Start Game menu causes controls to freeze after loading
Bug where controls become unresponsive after starting the game (not related to button mashing)
Bug where controls become unresponsive after forced sleep (controls remain unavailable even after restarting the game and reloading the save)
When using the Witch’s Station in the Starlit Cave, controls may freeze or the UI may disappear. This is believed to be caused by Ellie standing on Buoyancy Herb, which may prevent the level from unloading in some cases. We are monitoring the situation after fixing the Buoyancy Herb issue.
Reloading a previous save may resolve certain bugs.
However, because you are loading an earlier save, any progress made since then will be lost.
Reporting bugs on the Little Witch in the Woods Discord will greatly help us fix them.
