1.2 - New route, sanity overhaul and more

The Science of Staying Awake
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

1.2 is here! :D

Yay for making this weird little thing even more deranged!~ 

main changes: 

- new route,  including a new cg (or cgs, i guess?)

- small additions to existing routes

- complete overhaul of the sanity mechanic. it drains more slowly and hitting 0 does not mean a near-immediate game over anymore, but most importantly, some parts of the story are affected by your sanity level

- endings collection screen + new ending cards

bug fixes and tweaks:

- small ui improvements

- fixed a bug causing one of the secrets to crash the game for some users (hopefully)

- changed the default music volume since ren'py likes to play it unnecessarily loudly for some reason

- changed the way stat changes are displayed

- changed the bedroom background to a night version after returning from the parking lot

- some animation improvements

have fun and remember to get enough sleep :))
