🆕 NEW CONTENT

• Sandbox mode: A new difficulty option has been added. Enjoy infinite money and all themes unlocked from the start.
  

⚖️ BALANCING CHANGES

• No more shiny candidate: Overpowered recruits showing up in low-tier recruiting campaigns were breaking the game’s progression. These have been removed.
  
• Updated IP Stats: Some IPs had genre and theme combinations with poor affinity. These have been adjusted to improve their viability.
  

🐞 BUG FIX AND IMPROVEMENTS

• Employee Assignment Reset Fix: Assignments were sometimes not properly reset when returning to the main menu and starting/loading a game. This has been fixed.
  
• Improved Box Office Performance Feedback: Each category now receives a more granular score, ranging from F to A.
