0.7.0 Intuitive interface (and many other changes)
Last autumn, I was stuck in a "just effing get it released" rut, which ultimately didn't get the game any more done than what it was. Thanks to the power of constructive feedback (and friends, mostly friends), I'm back! And now I'm in a productive "I want this game to be its best version / but let's also get this done someday" mood! I've quietly been busy working on two major areas: crafting a new, more consistent UI, and making many long overdue bugfixes.
Now those two checkboxes are ticked, and it's time for a new demo! To commemorate a new release, I've even updated the Steam page. New gifs, new descriptions... do you like it? Oh, and here's the changelog for aaaall the things I got done for 0.7.0!
