addedHi, this week was dedicated to the main menu UI and scene, it's still not final yet, but it's serviceable at this stage. I have added logic for starting a new game, continuing previous session, or clearing all saves and again starting a new game. Aside from that I have created a animated "mini cutscene" where after clicking new game or continue, you get a nice animation for entering the Temple - loved how older games did it, and wanted to add something similar to my game. Also in some preparations for the demo, I have added a Wishlist button that opens up the games Steam page in the Steam Overlay window, or if Steam is not running, it opens Steam in the browser.
