MAJOR BUG FIX

Overlapping Captions bug fixed!

A day after publishing the game on itch, a lovely user (@Dorkfishie) pointed out that when you correctly answer the "select the male pinecone" prompt, the captions glitch, never leave, and remain permanently overlaying on every other caption (even after the game has completed!)

Here's the bug in action:


Turns out that the function that clears the captions after each game state had been accidentally set to 0 instead of 1. Once I set it back to 1, it fixed. -_-"

TL:DR;

It was an easy-to-fix, but overlooked bug since I tested the "incorrect" results more than the "correct" ones because they're longer!

Shoutout again to @Dorkfishie for pointing it out and providing context for how we could find the bug! You guys make these kinds of fixes SO much easier <3 

ALL BUILDS HAVE BEEN UPDATED!

If you downloaded a Windows or Mac build, please re-download it, for the bug fix!
