Welcome back for more patch notes!

This release brings some new languages, a collection of bug fixes, and some groundwork for a new feature! If you want to be involved as we continue to develop Bits & Bops, please consider joining our Discord server.

Our major news for this release: the game is now available in both French and Italian!
