#Update
This update adds some basic particle effects to attacking spells, and, amongst other things, fixes two issues I observed in this Olexa video, one of which narrowly avoided being a crash.
The first being that eating a cookie in the overworld would leave behind a nil item which would never get cleaned up, and would cause the inventory sort function, if ever used, to crash the game. Fortunately, they didn't realise it left a gap in their equipped consumables and took the nil item into an adventure where it was properly cleaned up. I'd have pushed this update out quicker with just the fixes for that, but if you were affected you would have at most lost some inventory management since the last autosave. The fix for that one is both retroactive, and applied at both ends; the sort no longer crashes if there's a nil item, and the nil items are removed as soon as you move your mouse off of the slot they were created in, and on game load just for anyone previously affected.
The other issue I noticed in the video was that the wordle minigame was supposed to have a tutorial button in the top left corner that explains the mechanics, but it was getting removed by the function that creates the on-screen keyboard.
