More Demo Optimizations
Hey folks!
We just patched the Slay the Princess demo with another round of significant performance optimizations. It's worth noting that these optimizations required us to refactor the demo's file structure, so the patch for this requires you to effectively redownload the entire package.
High level notes:
In non-patch news, both Slay the Princess and Scarlet Hollow are going to be participating in several excited Steam events over the next week, and Scarlet Hollow is going to be 20% off starting tomorrow at 1pm EST. So if you've been waiting on a sale to pick it up, this'll be the sale to jump on.
Development work of Episode 4 of Scarlet Hollow is trucking along, and we're still hoping to have it finished and released by Halloween, after which our focus will be on Slay the Princess until the game is ready to launch next summer.
Thank you so much for the support!

High level notes:
- Changed animation file container from .webm to .ogg, making CPU usage more fficient.
- Did away with a file archiving structure that caused significant framerate drops on windows machines.
