🌟 Special Note

• The plugin provides both GDScript and C# versions with identical functionality. No matter which language you use, you can enjoy the same features and performance!
• Due to the relatively large size of the demo (approximately 50mb), I have not included it in the official store as a plugin. If you wish to learn about this plugin through the demo, you can download the latest released version from GitHub
