v0.49 Build Notes

Lots going on in this week's build! Be warned, I moved a lot of the game's data to new homes this week, and there is a middling to high chance that game data from past builds will choke on the changes. It certainly did for me, but I may have successfully chased down the bugs that were causing the problem. Or I may not. Worst case, you may be have to reset the data or uninstall and (hopefully) reinstall.

Now that the data is actually moved, though, it's in a better place and should be much more stable in the long-run. But there are other changes!

• Card unlocks are now persistent data. This is big because you can play multiple "losing" games while unlocking cards and gaining flexibility.
• The options screen is being expanded, and settings are beginning to move into panels.
• This includes a simple sound fx on-and-off toggle. I'll probably move up to volume sliders sooner or later.
• Progress and health bars are a little better aligned and easier to read.
• Scores display only if you have scores to look at.
• Similarly, debug-oriented features like the "see all cards" button can now be tucked away out of sight.

Build 50 is coming, and I'm hopeful it will be the true alpha I've been looking for. We'll see what next week brings us.
