OddFauna Update: First Steps & Squashing Bugs

We've been reading through all your feedback, watching your gameplay, and taking lots of notes.

For this update, we focused on tuning the very beginning of the game. We want those opening moments to feel as inviting and intuitive as possible, so we've made several adjustments to the early pacing and onboarding to help you find your footing faster.
