Destination Ares changes
This is the last planned update before release on September 22nd! Version 0.9.0 brings a bunch of polish to the table. Most of the focus is on a revamp of the new player experience, as well as improvements to the Game Over presentation. There's also a small bit of new content. Tons more content coming for the launch! v 0.9.0 Notes:
Beginner Experience Overhaul
Introducing your new frenemy: Guide Bot!
Ripped out the old tutorial
Fused together a second beginner ship: the Gerridae
Crafted a better (and more visible) explanation of the minigame
New Content

"Viking Funeral" Achievement
Game Over events
Polish
Slight gradient overlay
Ship naming input now has a red backdrop to match other UI elements
Talking happens in words and chunks, rather than each letter
