Askutron v0.5.2 - Bugfixes, and Work in Progress

Good morning everyone!

While updates have been scarce over the last months we are still working on the game. In fact there are a lot of improvements coming to graphics and gameplay. Our goal was to have all of that done by Christmas this year. We're trying hard to make it happen in time.

In the meantime we just released a small but important bugfix release that was long overdue. Sorry to all the players who experienced problems!
