🌸 Patch Notes for Version 1.3.1 🌸

🔊 Removed Unused Sound File

A swift yet essential patch! I discovered an unused, colossal sound file lurking in the shadows, making the mod unnecessarily large (64.4MB!). After clearing it out, the mod now sits at a sleek 6.6MB, ready for quicker downloads and smoother gameplay. My apologies for the oversight—let's keep things light and sharp!

Enjoy the more streamlined version, and more content is on the way!
