Quest for Valadrin - 0.0.9 Update


Be squashed, bugs!

Version 0.0.9 comes with some significant bug fixes:
- Attacking NPCs no longer makes them sometimes disappear
- Exhaustion properly resets after resting
- Fixed some broken text when receiving a quest from the Mysterious Stranger
- Greeting people by using "G <npc name>" now works as intended

The time system has had some fun updates:
- Prompts for morning/evening when outside of dungeons
- Merchants and other non-guard NPCs now sleep from 8pm - 6am
- Merchants at Inns have been replaced with Barkeepers, who appear to never sleep
- The Mysterious Stranger can now only be found at night time
- Shops restock at 6am when they open

Other mics changes include:
- More interesting text when speaking with the Mysterious Stranger
- Speeding up the text when starting a new game can now also be done with the Return and Keypad Enter keys
- Improved text display when in combat with NPCs
- Increased the text speed throughout the whole game (will probably apply a setting for this soon)
- Updated colours: Cyan has replaced Yellow for input help, as it stands out a bit more
- Updated colours: Orange has replaced Cyan for all abilities and rage/mana references.


I hope you enjoy playing this game as much as I'm enjoying making it!

Overall game progress will be tackled soon. At the moment you can venture through 8 "worlds', but there is no end to the game. I'll probably cut it down in some way, and start thinking about how the game can be completed, and what the main objective is for the player. For now it's just been a fun, random rpg with permadeath, but it really needs more substance than that.
