0.10.4 Patch Notes

It wasn't too clear on how to progress in the game, from the hidden ladders, to the golem boss arena, to finding the imprisoned npc in the dungeon. I've made improvements to these areas to hopefully make the whole thing a little more intuitive. I've also made a lot of changes to how save files work behind the scenes. Files should become corrupt a lot less often, as well as keeping a backup save from the last stable save state. A bunch of QoL and fixes are also included.

Patch Notes v0.10.4

Added

• Replaced hidden ladders in caves with locked trapdoors. These require copper and iron keys to open(new world only)
  
• Added new shrines that are generated randomly throughout the world. These provide unique buffs and +recharge over time(new world only)
  
• Added sort buttons to inventory screen and containers
  
• Added map markers for NPCs and bosses

Whats Next?
I'll continue to work on bug fixes and QoL features such as, using items directly from the inventory or mouse, preventing the craft recipes from shuffling around mid craft, placing floor tiles under walls.
I'm also currently working on the next bosses(the dungeon and tundra), as well as a new small side island to explore.
