10/11 Improved Economy, New Manual, Bug Fixes

Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

I've just updated the game files; many of these changes are fixing issues that players either generally won't run into or won't notice, but I do want to draw your attention to the first two changes.  Consumable item prices are a lot cheaper now, and there's a new manual in Shinryu that's worth checking out.  Thanks to all the people who've found Jimmy and been spreading the word.  I know that Jimmy hasn't been viral or anything, but everyday I've been elated with the general reception it's been getting.  Anyway, here's the list of changes:

-Consumable item costs are now much more reasonable (about halved starting with the latter half of the second continent).
-Added new manual only available in Shinryu for $5,000: Adrenaline Shot.  It's an instant 10% revive that costs 35 mp and has a six-turn cooldown.
-Balanced Equation is now actually a balanced equation (I think).  Give me a break, it's been a long time since chemistry.
-Leaving the hotel in Calm Valley prior to talking to Lars will no longer result in a mysterious duplicate Lars outside.
-Roughhouse now costs $3,500.
-Mecha Super Balls now do 1,000% luck-based damage.  They also don't work with Andrew's Analysis skill, and this is reflected in their new description.
-There should no longer be any random encounters after finishing nightmare locations (until you reenter the dungeon).
-In Dark Dungeon, the game will no longer freeze when canceling out of panning the screen on a few specific locked spaces.
-The boss of a certain school will now only do a regular attack or regular magic attack for the first turn of the fight.
-The terminal status effect should now consistently work as intended.
-Joker's instadeath now works on Jimmy.
-Aurora Temple should be significantly less wonky.
-The game should no longer lock up for some people just getting to the Iron Flamingo.
-Added a small bit of dialogue before the scrolls in Secret Meridian that addresses a narrative inconsistency.
-Various typos and other small things have been addressed.
