We plan to fix all the bugs that may interrupt your gameplay. However, if we were to accomplish this, bug reports and feedback would be vital! So please feel free to report them, it will be welcomed anytime! Now let's go over the known issues. Sometimes Aka will not respond to the player's "Left Mouse Button". This becomes an issue when the player tries to interact with the game. ex) Trying to press the "Yes" UI to complete a quest. Now now, don't panic, Aka may sometimes have other opinions 😂🤣 Here's how to solve it! [list] [*] You can use the "F" key on the keyboard to interact with the game [*] If you had a controller plugged in, disconnect the controller and try restarting the game [*] Close the game and restart the game [/list] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40217694/756cd5b78cf8001625d93cd684f9bb3ff5bd39ab.png[/img] Aka's backpack can sometimes be mysterious... If the backpack's inventory is full it could cause some unexpected issues with item interactions. This can be avoided by leave a few empty slot in your backpack!

However, sometimes your new friends might be having too much fun while talking with Aka. Manual saving the game while talking to an NPC could cause an error that could interrupt the game's progression. So just keep this in mind and trust the Auto Save feature! On Bamboo Island, there is a Shiba Inu who requires our help! But sometimes that doggo can be too smart, and he may be taking a walk already.

Don't worry, we've already identified these issues, and we are pending reviews before we can release it publically! Sometimes Aka may become too fond of certain items in his backpack. Interacting with certain items in the backpack and then closing it, may cause Aka to walk in the animation above. It is a cute visual bug indeed, Aka will come back to his senses when he moves to a new location!
