What can I customize the "Slice it!" section?
Customization options include:

- Probability of Appearance: Set the appearance frequency (low, medium, high) for each item.

Advanced settings allow further control over gameplay, such as unlimited item display until the end of the game or limiting item occurrences. You can also adjust the item proportion to appear bigger or smaller, and set the game to become more challenging over time or based on performance.
What happens if a player slices a forbidden item?
Slicing a forbidden item may cause a loss of points or lives, depending on the game mode. Also, you can configure the game to display a shaking effect to visually indicate the mistake.
How do I ensure my game provides a dynamic experience?
You can enhance the game's dynamics by selecting various slicing effects, customizing effect colors (with automatic gradients), and utilizing the gradual difficulty mode, which escalates the challenge as players progress, ensuring an engaging experience for all skill levels.
