Version 1.3.0 released


Version 1.3.0 has a lot of quality of life improvements. Lots of little fixes and standardisation that required rewriting a bunch of code. Massive accessibility improvements, too. If you're dyslexic you just lost your excuse not to play this game. I didn't put them in an "Accessibility" menu, I put them in sections relevant to what they affect. e.g.: The font toggle is in the "Text" section. Maybe I should make a Youtube video titled "I didn't put an Accessibility menu in my game. It was the right choice" and troll people into clicking.
