changedThis update took me a long time to deliver but it offers a ton of improvements.

addedFirst off - after many requests, I introduced WASD movement for those who don't like the arrow keys. If you are loading a saved game you will have to reset your controls to default and re customize. This way WASD doesn't compete with any of your control schemes.

addedYou can now use a mouse to walk around, open the menu and engage with said menu. You will still need the keyboard though. I will expand on mouse support in the future!

addedI heavily reworked the start of the game to include a new fight that happens really early - it gives you your first creature, introduces a new main character and gets the game rolling much sooner. For those of you who are loading saved games - you won't feel much of a difference - of course you still benefit from all of the control upgrades. There are also several other bug fixes and QoL upgrades. Full patch notes as follows!

changedreworked the start of the game so the conversation with the snake in the tunnel goes VERY differently and you get a creature right away

addedevents are very much streamlined in a completely new way
