Release of v0.3!


Hello, I'm still here! This update has actually been live on the Patreon for quite some time, so it's about time I brought it out to the public! 

Outside of patch notes, there is one important thing of note: I lied. Originally the previous version was intended to be the final one that featured a Web build.
... well I figured out how to squish the assets a bit and now we have a definitive final Web Version titled Web Demo (it might even run a bit better than the previous web build, actually!)

And with that out of the way, it's time for the good ol' patch notes. (Spoiler Warning!)

is there a walkthrough guide?

There's some crudely written notes available on Patreon, but I wouldn't quite call them walkthroughs.

hm... why can't I give the materials to the doctor ? I have everything and it's a new save file too. is that the limit of this build ?

(+1)

That's a bug that snuck through while I was working on other stuff! I've just released a quick update which should fix this.
