It appears that not even a few hours after publishing the game, there are already game-breaking bugs. But, after a lot of tinkering, it's fixed! Along with this are some more bug fixes and balancing updates. I'm not actually expecting a single soul to read this, it's more here for documentations sake. But if you are here, congratulations! You aren't awarded anything for reading this.
