New song and sound effects

TL;DR: New dynamic soundtrack song for the Elements of Art tutorial. Pinball Creation Kit sounds. I had an odd week before some travel and a family visit so I did a quick update on the audio front.

addedThe game's original soundtrack received a new song by Anna Eicheneuer which will play after the Elements of Art tutorial is unlocked (whenever you don't put on a cassette tape in the Music app, since that overrides the OST).
addedOne thing that didn't make the cut in the past was sound effects in the pinball game. As I had a couple of days left over the weekend after finishing the new song, I quickly threw together some 4-bit Macintosh-style blips and bloops to make playing pinball more tactile.

Can't include screenshots of these things, but you can hear them in the devlog:

During the travels, I'll be designing the rest of the Elements of Art sections, and possibly look into "free draw" mode as a lot of you have been asking for it.

See you a bit (or maybe a byte)! Retro
