Game Intro

In the previous versions, when launching, the game would simply put the player in the main menu without any form of introduction. Now, the game displays an epilepsy warning and then a transition plays that takes the player from the black screen into the main menu.

New Items

Three new items have been added to the game. Rubber Duckie, Evil Duckie, and Vial of Mystery. Rubber Duckie is an item that can alert manifestations when used nearby. Evil Duckie - the more dangerous version of this item - can alert manifestations no matter what the distance is.

The Vial of Mystery is an item that can be either drunk or combined with other items. In this case, the Vial of Mystery can be combined with the Rubber Duckie to craft the Evil Duckie.

UI Changes and Improvements
