Repeated intro

Hello miners, it's patch day! This version adds new procedural mobs, a scalable viewport option, new potions, new spear and bow mechanics, treasures drop rate tweaks and many more features and fixes. The new spear weapons mechanic is experimental and the whole spear graphical approach will be tweaked in the future, we're thinking about increasing their length to make them able to reach more distant positions while making them less effective for short range combat. The new procedural mob generation is experimental too, we tested it with slimes to understand the potentiality of generating different flavour of mobs by composing parts, we'll extend this feature whenever possible to other creatures if it satisfies us and especially you! The Linux version is under heavy development and we're in a good state so hopefully we'll soon release it! Have fun playing! ENHANCEMENTS
