v0.4.2: We totally didn't skip v0.4.1😅

Alright! How are you all doing? On our end, things have been a bit hectic:

1. We moved out of our makeshift office into a bigger one! It's still a borrowed though 😁, but the new extra legroom is amazing, and we are thankful to our landlord. 
2. We submitted a polished build to a contest.
3. We went to some local events to promote the game.

All while working on the game, so it's been a lot!

However, I am writing this a few weeks late, and we skipped v0.4.1, because we felt it was playable but had some quirky visual bugs.

 So to make up for it, I'll make a side by side! v0.4.1 on the left VS v0.4.2 on the right. Because the changes are HUGE.

No more carpet!

We wanted to emulate real-life card games playmats, and sometimes, they have intricate or complex images on them. In our case, it added a lot of noise to the game's view, so we removed it. And we believe it's better off without it.

Who killed the lights? 

Stuff receives the light it requires. On v0.4.1 we reduced the number of lights we had around to 3. But then ended up with too little illumination. Thus, we made sure that light reached every object that required.

I can tell what's going on!

This one was the best thing that happened to the game so far. We got the feedback from a steemed colleague game developer that “hey, I can tell what's going on.” And we are so happy we could achieve that. There is still a lot of room for improvement though, so we'll, of course, keep at it 💪

And look who's here!

The Innkeeper and his things. He welcomes you and teaches you how to play the game, and then guides you on your journey. This is him.  Or at least some crude semblance and portrayal of his true and masked enigmatic glory. We are not yet doing him justice, he's a bit stiff and pale, but we will strive to do our best to bring him out of the ether an into the Game.

So that's it for today! Thank you for playing and reading!
