💡 Technical Description
This is the first time I have made a Unity BepInEx Mod, which is implemented using input data hijacking. Since the game has special logic with unclear meaning for the left and right menu keys, it cannot be directly hijacked. Therefore, under the optimization of ChatGPT, a corresponding complex processing solution is used to implement it.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
