FIXED BUGS
issue 047 Doors to other areas of the game are always opened (we are considering close permanently doors to final areas to keep some secrets safe)
issue 048 Partner yabbies clip out of their boxes (due to animation rework, actual animation is kind of placeholder)
issue 049 Levels which entry is on the ground can be accessed always, those doors will be closed till the previous level is blocked
issue 042
issue 009 cells that paint player in white are difficult to notice. They can be seen as traps, but should be more noticeable.
NEW FEATURES
We added aditional plots to the game , of course they are spoilers, so we can't say anything here
We gave the next step improving performance with memory usage. The xoElian Dev that make it, was shouting -Give me one more week and I will make this game run in smartwatches! The empire rules!!!
We added a very difficult secret to the game. QA Yabbies are begging for more clues, and yes, more clues will be included to find the secret!.
