Round 1 Bug fixes and Quality adjustments

The Beacon
A browser game made in HTML5

Bug Fixes:

- Fixed stair glitch that "glued" the player in between stairs and wall, causing starvation and loss of progress.

- Fixed bookshelf glitch that soft-locked in a pause state while bookshelf was open.

- Fixed energy/sanity restore glitch that prevented energy/sanity restoration when you sleep.

- Fixed several font symbols that weren't rendering properly.

Quality Improvements:

- Adjusted several variables and added code to better pace the game, especially with onboarding/tutorial.

  1. Tutorial popups stay on screen until their tasks are accomplished.
  2. Tutorial popups have been rewritten for better clarity.
  3. Ship spawner has been delayed initially to allow breathing room in the beginning of the game.
  4. Lens polishing speed improved by 50%.
  5. Ship spawning pauses at the end of each night.

- Changed the font in several areas of the bookshelf to, hopefully, improve readability.

- Opening the bookshelf now pauses the game.

- I may have forgotten something but either way, it's better now...play it!
