[h2]Bugs and Issues:[/h2]
[h3]Save System Warning[/h3]
A significant overhaul to the save system is planned for Chapter Two, which will likely cause loss of saved data from Chapter One. I'll keep you informed about this change, and I appreciate your understanding.
[h3]Version Naming System Adjusted[/h3]
It's a small change, but one we hope will help avoid confusion. We've updated the version numbering system, and it now reads - "EA : Major : Minor : Patch" aka version 0.1.1.0. The addition of EA (Early Access) should make it easier to understand the updates and their hierarchy.
[h3]New Marketing Material[/h3]
Full Disclosure: You might have noticed that the marketing material for the game has been updated. I’ve used MidJourney to help create a fresh image for Steam marketing assets for the game. Since my current budget doesn't allow for hiring an artist at the moment, utilising MidJourney was a helpful way to give the Steam marketing assets a makeover. I promise, as soon as I can afford to outsource art, I'll be super excited to bring a talented artist on board to make the marketing material even more amazing. Please note that this is the only AI-generated art used for marketing purposes, and there is no AI-generated art within the game itself.
