addedHi guys, today's update improves drastically the load/speed ratio. I've read tons of complaints about this, about how adding load to the system would bring your speed down very fast, my bad. I am here today to change that. Load will still affect your speed, but in a way more forgiving way. Here is a comparison table:
addedThis patch should fix the "my save is gone" issue. This version of the game has a new way of saving progress to disk, should completely erase that issue. If you find it, let me know, will get back to works on it.
changedThe patch also improves the loading time of the game, should start 25%-30% faster, and if you play in window mode, the first 2 frames flicker is now gone.
changedThe game now properly supports almost any aspect ratio. You can make the window of the game take any aspect ratio and the game should render fine. If you go for a vertical window (taller than wider) the UI will look a bit compressed but will still be playable. The game will also remember the position of the window, the resolution you set, and in what monitor it was. It will launch at the same place with the same size/window mode every time.
removedI have also removed the link to the wiki as it is no longer live.
addedI have added a new setting to disable the "F" key shortcut to switch window modes, you can find it in the settings section under the UI category.

That's all for now, let me know if you have any QoL suggestions, or improvements to the game I can add, thanks.
