Hey everyone!

I've added a scene customization system, fixed a few bugs, made some rule tweaks for Checkers and Hex, and improved some of the weaker AI opponents. Here's the full rundown:

New Feature: Scene Customization

• You can now change the look of the game board in real time — no need to quit out to do it.

• Lighting — Adjust light intensity and color temperature on the fly

• Materials — Change the colors of pieces and the board independently

• Undo — Not happy with the result? Just revert with one tap

• Every game now has its own dedicated scene preset.

Game Updates

1. Hex Swap Rule & Checkers Backward Capture Option

• Hex now supports the Swap Rule, which takes the edge off first-move advantage and keeps things fair.

• Checkers now has a toggle for whether regular pieces can capture backward — handy for matching the house rules players from different regions are used to.

2. AI Improvements

• Tuned the AI in a few games to better match their intended difficulty:

• Hex

• Checkers

• Gomoku

3. Visual & Audio Touch-ups

• Polished up the visual effects and sounds in several games.

4. Localization

• Fixed a handful of translation errors
