This update focuses on input customization, display settings and a cleaner Options menu.
Following player feedback, keyboard controls can now be customized directly in-game, while the Options menu has been reorganized to make the growing number of settings easier to navigate.

🎮 Customizable Keyboard Controls
You can now rebind the following keyboard actions:
- Move Up
- Move Down
- Move Left
- Move Right
- Confirm
- Cancel / Back
Your custom bindings are saved locally and restored automatically the next time you start the game.
The Controls menu also includes:
Restore Defaults – quickly return to the standard control scheme.
Conflict Detection – the game warns you before assigning the same key to conflicting actions.
Current Binding Display – your currently assigned keys are shown directly in the menu.
The default movement controls remain WASD + Arrow Keys.
Controller bindings remain unchanged.

⚙️ Reworked Options Menu
The Options menu has been reorganized into dedicated categories instead of placing every setting on the same screen.
You will now find separate menus for:
Display / Resolution
Sound
Controls
This applies to both the main menu and the in-game Options menu.

🖥️ Expanded Display Settings
The Display menu now supports three different window modes:
Fullscreen
Maximized Window
Windowed
When using Windowed mode, you can choose between:
1280 × 720 – 720p
1920 × 1080 – 1080p
2560 × 1440 – 1440p
Your selected display mode and windowed resolution are saved automatically.

🎮 Controller Navigation Improvements
Controller navigation inside the new Options menus has been improved and stabilized.
Xbox/XInput controls continue to use the existing layout:
Left Stick / D-Pad – Navigate
A – Confirm
B – Back / Cancel
Several focus-navigation issues introduced while expanding the Options system have also been corrected.

💾 Compatibility
Existing save games are unaffected by this update.
Keyboard and display preferences are stored separately from your regular save slots.
Thank you for the feedback!
The keyboard rebinding system was added directly in response to Early Access feedback.
