New Chronomon Demo drop!

Completely reworked the demo and added HUGE amounts of features and fixes.

I have been listening to the community and hope the fixes are welcome ones.

Farming
Farming has been completely redone to be up to current day standards for farm games. Assign tools to hotbars, easy auto-switch between tools.

The new farm also has destroyable nature like any farm game should have - clear out your farm with your axe or hammer - Knock down trees, break rocks, sow the fields, plant seeds, water etc.

Crafting and Decorating
Although still a limited decorations choice, you can now decorate any part of your farm, inside and out. Craft fences (that auto-tile to connect), fully functioning gates, campfires, Chests and floors. (Many many more decoration to come!)

Inventory / Hotbar
The inventory has been completely reworked - adding a hotbar as well. This should bring the game up to current PC standards

New Map
A completely new map has been made, one that is significantly closer to the actual game. This includes a fully functioning farm, buildings (inside and out), full town and fields to explore.

NPC Schedules
Previous build had a very limited amount of NPC scheduling. Almost all NPCs, at least the important ones (INPCs) have a robust schedule system. Changing location, walking to different places, different dialogue depending on TOD and location and even Quests that can only be activated when on the correct schedule.

I will be working tirelessly on this game as I have been. A huge thank you to everyone that has tried and supported this game dev journey. Thank you as well to every Kickstarter that made that success come true!

I'll keep you updated with more,
- Dev
