STEIN.world - New UI (v0.3.9)
Summary
We have revised the entire user interface in order to optimize playing on mobile devices or in many cases to make it possible at all. Now it is possible to play stein.world either in the browser on your own smartphone or, if the smartphone browser allows it, to install stein.world as a Progressive Webapp (PWA). This patch is also an important step to make stein.world available as an independent Android or iOS app in the future.
