Repeated intro

Hello, there! Since the demo's initial release months back, the game's balance and overall quality has improved quite substantially and, as a result, I felt that the demo no longer served as a proper preview of the full game. So I updated it. It's still relatively the same, but the game's progression and balance has been reworked, and there's been a ton of quality of life improvements (not to mention bug fixes). The (somewhat) full list of changes can be read below in the patch notes, if you're interested. I hope you enjoy! :D ... GAMEPLAY & GENERAL BALANCE CHANGES
