Alright I'm gonna try to remember everything I added in this update

1.) The backroads / street zone has been added to quite a bit. It's far from finished, but there's definitely some new surprises to be found around there.

2.) Lesser currency has been added in the form of Banknotes. They look like little notes. Don't worry about them too much yet, because there's nothing to spend them on and no real way to track them yet and I keep fighting myself on how they should look

3.) I added unlockable skins (okay, I added one) and a title system for leaderboards. Also I'm playing around with leaderboards. For what, you gotta figure out yourself 'cuz I added a leaderboard for something in this update, too, and not the thing you think I would add a leaderboard for

4.) Starting skin is now randomized, because why not nobody likes the default anyway

5.) I added a machine in the starting area for turning audio on and off, but it doesn't work yet. Still trying to figure out what I'm going to do for music, as I am bad at making music but I'm also very broke

6.) I didn't add anything to the Autumn area but I did dramatically improve the sound effect it makes when you fall off the bottom of the screen

General thoughts: might redo the Autumn zone. Not as dramatic as it sounds- I redid the street zone like three times before I found a vibe I really liked. A save function is coming, since unlockables kind of feel silly if you have to restart every time- I just need to work out how to have functioning save points that don't collide with the ever-evolving nature of the game. Might have to make dedicated save rooms, isolated from other areas (since those areas could change overnight).

Curious what other people think, about vibes and the player character and individual areas and everything else. This game's very much an experiment, but a lot of my best stuff has started that way. Feedback's gonna be key to figuring out what works and what doesn't. Also money. I have a Patreon for folks looking to score free hats or whatever when I start rolling those out (I seriously haven't even thought that far, but there's gonna be something), or Paypal if you just want to tip me. I've been surviving on ramen noodles, snipes and Amazon MTurk surveys this month, which isn't exactly conducive to the creative process so any support is appreciated.

Like, seriously. Five bucks would change my life this week. ANYWAY I think that's the gist of the update. I left out a little bit but I don't want to spoil everything.
