First of all thank you very much for all your positive feedback and constructive criticism! <3
I'm currently focusing on adding more polish to the game and smoothen out all the edges. Below you can find most of the changes that got implemented with this update. There's still more to come in the future but this update has already gotten big enough as it is and the majority of the fixed bugs most players would normally never encounter. ^^

- Fixed a bug where it would wrongly jump to the chapter menu under certain conditions
- Move forward
- Part of the word now becomes italic after a certain amount of time to indicate that your input is required
- If coming from the pause menu, the part of the word becomes italic immediately
