Major Changes

  • No longer fixed to 1920x1080!
    • The game now linearly scales  to resizes
    • Reduced the size of the embedded iframe on the Itch.io page to 1600x900
    • Increased the text size of several UI elements to remain readable at lower resolutions
    • Some in-game text still needs font size increases to remain readable at <1080 resolutions
    • Much thanks to Gwen for help with fixing this!!!
  • Added sort buttons to the clue pages in the book!
    • The Name and Symbol sections can now be separately sorted by either "clue name" or "found timestamp" and the sort direction can be switched between asc or desc for either mode
  • Added pretty new "closed book" button on the left edge for opening the BookView
  • Made the "Welcome Letter" re-openable via a new artifact sparkle in the lower right of the Castle Exterior scene


Minor Changes

  • Replaced placeholder "ROSE SIGIL" and "LIGHTNING SIGIL" text with actual assets
