Sharper font, trading cards, and new room type

MidBoss celebrates its one year anniversary with a new update, introducing Steam trading cards, a sharp pixel art font, and a new room type. Trading cards of course come with a full compliment of cards, badges, emotes, and backgrounds. A new custom pixel art font was created for this update to address complaints of the font being too blurry. Check out the image below to compare the two fonts when seen at 1080p, with the new font at the top and the old at the bottom.
If you preferred the old font you can switch back to it through the options menu. Finally there's a new room type! I won't spoil how it works for you though, you'll just have to go and find out for yourselves.

Changes in v1.3.0:

(savegame compatible with previous version) [2018-06-03]

Bug Fixes

Fixed typo in Staff Mastery tooltip.
Fixed an occasional BGM related crashing bug in MidBoss Classic.

Environment

Added a new room type that contains an unbreakable adamantine chest with a glowing red lock.

General

MidBoss Pro experience level no longer disables the tutorial as some players were picking it the first time they played the game.

Graphics

Fixed a font rendering bug that could cause weird pointy stroke on death card text on Windows systems.
Vsync will no longer be forced off for users who's AMD cards falsely claim to support adaptive vsync. If a crash related to adaptive vsync is detected a file "amd_disable_vsync.txt" is created, if this file is detected on load adaptive vsync is disabled and regular vsync can be used instead.

Added a new pixel art font which makes text in the game much crisper and (hopefully) easier to read. This will be turned on by default and the old font can be restored by checking "Use old font" in the Graphics section of the options menu.
Because the new pixel font does not have italics, new icons have been added to the forms window to indicate whether an ability is active, passive, or innate.

Steam

Steam trading cards have been added!
