Repeated intro

Hello everyone, and thank you for your interest in our game. The positive reception of Old Man's Journey on Steam surprised us and makes us very happy! To give back we've been busy working on a major update for Mac and Windows. The number 1 feedback we heard from you was that you would like to tweak Old Man's Journey to better fit your PC. So we finally added a real settings menu that you can access either from the pause or main menu. We also added a way to quit the game from the main menu for those of you who don't like using cmd-q or alt-f4 to exit from a game :) A few people told us that the game crashes on their Windows 7 machine. The reason for that was the plugin we used to play videos in our game. Luckily Unity just added their own VideoPlayer. So we updated Unity, made sure everything works as expected (something always breaks when updating to a major new version) and are glad to report that it now runs on our Windows 7 test case. We also fixed a few bugs, improved some graphics and added a turtle. Can you find it? All the best, Felix PS: Sorry that the fix took a bit longer than promised. That's beause we won an Apple Design Award and had to travel to the United States again to pick it up. We're so proud of our little game!
