- Fix game not starting when updated from an old version

After six months without updates, we are thrilled to announce the release of the next big update to Gobs and Gods!
This patch focuses on enhancing tactical combat. We’ve added a much wider variety of enemy mobs and reworked almost all existing enemies. These changes should make the late game far more diverse and challenging.

Additionally, we’ve revamped several traits and skills that felt underwhelming. For example, ranged weapons have been redesigned to feel more distinct, and goblin traits have been updated to be clearer while always offering some (small) advantage.

Looking ahead, we plan for the next major update to focus on adding more quests. I already have a backlog of 'unique' quests written and waiting to be properly integrated into the game. After that, we’re likely to focus on introducing a few alternative game starts to maximize replayability.
