🚀 What's New in v0.0.3
The Visual Polish & Performance Update! This update brings massive under-the-hood performance improvements to keep your PC running cool, alongside beautiful new visual effects and critical bug fixes.
✨ New Features & Improvements:
- Dynamic Colorful Glows: Pets in the Discover and Installed galleries now feature gorgeous, dynamic glowing shadows. We built a custom color-detection system that automatically analyzes the pet's sprite and generates a vibrant, matching aura!
- Active Companion Orb: The floating animated orb behind your currently active companion now automatically syncs its color to match your pet.
- Brand New Update System: We've completely rebuilt the auto-updater. You'll now get a sleek, glassmorphic pop-up on the home screen when a new version drops, with a direct button to grab the latest release safely!
- Crypto Support Added: Added Monero (XMR) and Solana addresses to the footer for those who want to support the project.
- Deep Performance Optimizations: We tore down the rendering engine and rebuilt it. The app now utilizes full GPU hardware-acceleration and native frame-pacing. The result? Massively reduced CPU and RAM consumption. Your pets will now completely sleep (using 0 CPU) when the app is minimized.
🐛 Bug Fixes:
- The "Stuck Pet" Bug is DEAD: Fixed a highly requested bug where newly installed pets couldn't be equipped, or equipping a new pet would force you to completely reload the app to see it. Switching pets is now instant and flawless.
- Layering Fixes: Fixed an issue where the new glowing shadows were accidentally rendering on top of the pets instead of behind them.
- Monochrome Math: Fixed a flaw in the color detection system that caused pure white or grey shadows. The algorithm now strictly hunts for vibrant, colorful pixels.
