1.31 Update
1.31 is beefier than the 1.3 milestone, with a lot of improvements.
A few players provided more detailed feedback, from bugs that still needed to be fixed to major and minor annoyances. Gotta fix 'em all!
Once again a heartfelt thank you to these players for helping me polish the game.
To improve mid game challenge I've also incorporated some balance tweaks.
Spoiler alert.
