Changelog (v. 0.1.2)

This update focuses mainly on bugfixes and improvements. We added sound effects to many objects that lacked them, and we improved a bit on the quality of our existing sound effects. We also added a settings screen with volume controls so that players can adjust the volume of sound effects and music.

The difficulty curve has been made less steep, with harder levels pushed later and most of the hardest levels replaced with easier ones.

In this update, we removed cutscenes and collectible journal pages. While we feel that these added value to our game, they aren't that important to core gameplay. Moving forward, we will be putting core gameplay first. These features will be added back once all the areas of the game have been completed. We will be making an announcement soon that goes into more detail about our plans for the future of this game. Thanks for your support!
