First update for the game.
This update will not have any large features which are not yet ready. It will just have some bug fixes as well as some control and interface adjustments. Most notably:
- Added backwards thrusters allowing the ship to accelerate in a backwards direction
- Reworked the radar screen to center on the ship as well as being larger with a smaller frame
- Added an optional restart button that pops up when you run out of fuel
- Removed all gate locks based on orientation
- Cut 2 more checkpoints from level 1 as well as 2 checkpoints from level 2
- Various UI and control bug fixes

These changes are part of issues and game design problems that I actually want to talk about at some length so I will be addressing them and how these changes came to be in future devlogs.
