    TL;DR: iCloud sync now carries your saves across all Apple devices. Buttons get haptic feedback. IPO cinematic support added. A massive design system audit unifies 75+ fonts, colors, and UI elements. Full rebrand from Silicon Dreams to Silly Con Valley.

    Silly Con Valley — Update 1.27 | May 2026

    The big one. 1.27 is where Silicon Dreams became Silly Con Valley, your saves learned to fly between devices, and we spent a deeply satisfying sprint replacing 75+ hardcoded font tokens with proper design system values. Typography nerds, this one’s for you.

    iCloud Sync — Saves Travel With You

    Your startup’s cap table, morale metrics, and investor resentment now sync seamlessly across all your Apple devices via iCloud. Lose your phone, keep your Series B. The Privacy Policy has been updated to cover iCloud syncing and Game Center integration.

    Interactive Silicon Buttons with Haptic Feedback

    Buttons now pop with satisfying haptic feedback. Small detail. Enormous dopamine delivery. Your thumb will thank you.

    Cinematic Support for the Global IPO Roadshow

    Immersive Intro, Win, and Loss cinematic videos are now supported during the Global IPO Roadshow. Your triumph (or humiliating liquidation) is now properly cinematic. IPO MP4s optimized with fast-start encoding — no more 15-second white screen purgatory.

    Major Design System Audit

    This is what it looks like when you actually care about shipping a premium product:

    • 75+ hardcoded fonts replaced with proper Silicon Dreams Theme typography tokens

    • All paddings and corner radii standardized using Theme scaling tokens
    • Windows, headers, and UI elements unified under UnifiedWindowHeader
