Before we start:[/h2]
This version will have a lot of patches in the future,
like a lot. The reason why is because there will be bugfixes but especially new additions like new skins, hats, items, overhauling menus, adding leaderboards, changing levels, complex systems and etc to Beta 1.8.X versions!
You might notice that this update seems small, but it took me a long time to add big levels and the calendar, so to give it back to you guys, there will be patches and new additions to Beta 1.8.X
I also highly recommend
reading this first, because it explains Beta 1.8 a lot.
Be on the lookout for future patches of the game!

[h2]
Other:[/h2]
The game will automatically create the Calendar folder in local files/Save Files/Calendar
in there it will name a folder depending on which version of the calendar you are loading (2022 calendar, 2023 calendar etc)
In the 2022 calendar folder it makes 12 folders for each month
Finally in each folder it creates 4 files (one is for each week) which will be used to check if you have all of the levels beaten. The main point is that all of this is dynamic, no hardcoded values, so I don't have to write code for each year, month, week etc. The game is only provided info what it needs to create by itself :)
totally not a complicated system where it took me hours to make lol
