Demo v7

Karapath DEMO v7
A downloadable GAME for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Gameplay
- exit points now heal for the amount remaining when exiting
        : instead of punishing being slow, now you are encouraged to be fast
- critrate now halves per each stack applied on the same slot
        : allows stacking critrate over 100%
        : 120% would always crit once, then 60% of the time twice, 30% thrice etc

- introduced smiterate: smite hits add +1 hit to a slot
- allowing changing starting player and boss characters
- added ability to change between mods on the setup screen
- default map size of 4x4 now sometimes becomes 3x5 or 2x8

Runewords
- replaced used dictionary with the one used by a popular word game
- separated shown foe words from possible render words
- rendering shown words gives better number of options rates

Items
- new set of item types, there are now 12 core rarities and 3 extra rarities
        : 6 for positive effects (3 tier 1, 3 tier 2)
        : 6 for negative effects (3 tier 1, 3 tier 2)
        : 1 for neutral effects
        : 1 for unit baseline effects
        : 1 for unique effects

- replaced old items with new ones fitting into the new types
        : modifiers for: hitrate, critrate, smiterate, HP, max HP (12 of each)
        : death: allows reviving on collapsing by deathsweeping
        : effect-less rune

- there are now 2 tiers of item types
        : tier 1 items stay in the inventory and labeled with 1 rune
        : tier 2 items are equipped and labeled with 2 runes

- changed drop rates
        : only tier 1 items can drop from foes and the altar
        : rendering runewords guaranteed tier 2 item choices
        : non-tier 1 items can only be looted through rendering runewords

- number of rendered item choices depends on word rarity
        : rare words usually grant less item choices (most likely 2)
        : common words usually grant more item choices (most likely 3)

- loot runes no longer duplicate if there are no duplicates in the foe runeword

Interface
- added rune rearranging 
- tiles now show the runes they hold
- pointless tiles now have a different pattern
- patched not being able to fully hover on portrait labels
- showing player stats when hovering over the player portrait
- showing player and boss descriptions when hovered on their portraits at the gate screen
- runed items now show their rarity on hover instead of the rune
- hiding specific item runewords from their tooltips
        : tooltip runewords implied that those were the only words that could be constructed
        : in reality any 5 letter word can be rendered
        : rendering item names guarantees the item dropping

Other
- noticeably improved tilemap generation speed
- added many new sound effects
