0.3.1 - Achieving New Horizons

At long last, Steam Achievements are here!

We also dive into the beginning of Isle 3, but just enough to finally beat that pesky final monster introduced on Isle 2 last update...

Serving as a bridge between the last major update and the next, this update brings the major things above alongside several QOL features and loose ends that weren't quite tied up in 0.3.0.

We also have a brand new Community Art-piece, this time by "Lee"!
