April 2025 for Last-Voyage/Aframax focused on performance, cinematics, asset management, and UX polish. Key work includes: sparing tween and universal managers to reduce overhead and boost runtime performance; cinematic system overhaul with skip flow, intro/outro prefabs, and outro cutscene support; UI enhancements including a main button icon; asset swapping core functionality and Bloody Notes integration; and broad code quality improvements (naming standardization, XML comments, and cleanup). Stability and maintainability improvements were reinforced by enabling the Slighter feature flag, tuning runtime speed, and significant bug fixes (navigation, key-objective flow, and debug cleanup). The result is a more responsive runtime, a smoother cinematic experience, improved UX feedback, and a more maintainable codebase ready for larger-scale feature work.
