June 2025 performance summary for S-oul/AstroCube_Team_05. Major UI overhaul and stability improvements across Start Menu, Level Menu, and Pause Menu, with a focus on business value, accessibility, and visual polish. Highlights include a comprehensive Start Menu UI revamp with responsive design, button frames/resize behavior, hover states, and integrated Settings/Controls UI with Back navigation; added persistent build/version display and navigation arrows in Start Menu screens. Controller navigation extended to general menus and Pause Menu, improving accessibility for console users. Level navigation and Level Selection UI were enhanced with back buttons, new level buttons, and a dedicated Level menu background and UI assets. Skybox visuals updated on the title screen to improve first impressions and visual quality. Real-time UI interactivity was improved through Pointer UI following the mouse and live FOV updates, plus a Motion Blur toggle control. Asset hygiene and stability tasks included re-adding restored Sprite assets and Title Screen references after merge issues, and Git metadata cleanup. Additional UX fixes and responsive behavior across screen sizes (e.g., Start Menu cleanup, back button fixes, and deactivation of Continue button in menus) reduced user confusion and support overhead.
