Demo 4.6
Hey Beekeepers!
So since the Playtest has ended there's been a bunch of tweaks and bug fixes, so we wanted to update the demo to keep it in-line with the final game - especially with Steam NextFest looming on the horizon (Saturday!)
This update has a bunch of gamepad stuff, balance stuff, and then a butt-tonne of bug fixes. Enjoy!

[h2]Changes[/h2]
- Added a Now Playing notification so you know the name of your favourite track!
- Added a "High Contrast Slots" option in the Accessibility menu
- You can now hold shift while middle-clicking to not only gather up as many of the same item (middle click) but move it to another menu also
- Menu Objects now need two hammer hits to be picked up, giving you a chance to avoid the dreaded stuff explosion with your crates

- You can now use the dpad for mechanisms on gamepad as well as R stick
- You can now use the dpad for general slot movement in-game as well as R stick
- Saving the game now takes a little bit longer (1 whole second!!) but now it won't freeze the game so you can just keep on truckin', don't say I never treat you all

- Doubled the amount of honey made per frame extraction (5 frames = minimum 1 bottle worth, higher productivity trait = more honey obvs)

- Tweaked world gen for the demo to try and avoid awkward lake cut-offs
