1.6.2 Release

This is a fairly minor update.

• Fixed a softlock when blackmailing Jasmine after evolving your pokémon, where the player could get suck in a loop in a menu that only lets you pick "Stay here with Cynthia instead." and never go anywhere. Thank you to joelaarhus for pointing this one out!
• Changed how the love meters are displayed so they don't constantly hide and show when the dialog box hides and shows.
• Fixed a couple of niche places where Betsy's sprite would duplicate itself when meeting her at the docks.
• Added social links to the main menu, which take you to my Linktree page with links to all the various places you can find me.

Apart from this, there's only one tiny gameplay change:

• If the player evolves their starter pokémon during the night, you will get +1 Cynthia love later on when telling her. Previously, the player would lose 1 Cynthia love under some circumstances.

If you're wondering where version 1.6.1 went, there isn't one. I skipped directly from 1.6 to 1.6.2 just to make it a little clearer that there's been an update.

On another note, a kind soul volunteered to translate the game into Italian. The work isn't done yet (and it's a lot of work - around twenty thousand lines of dialog/narration to translate) but I hope to be able to make this game available to non-english speakers. If you speak Spanish or French or Korean or something, and you'd be interested in helping me with translation, reach out to me. It requires very little technical work on your part and absolutely zero coding or game design skills.

I am still working on my next game, which will star Marnie.A (very) early preview build is available for you to download if you want to see what it's going to be about. I foresee it being finished within the next few months. I had hoped to get it done before Christmas, but I'm not sure if I'll make it. One way or another, it will be out when it's finished.
