v0.5 early access 2

Edit (hotfix 1):
Sorry, I should have caught these during testing.

• Game will now show the correct version on title screen and in logs.
• Added a new save patcher for ea1 saves.

Original post below:
The second combat floor has been transformed into a castle-ish themed floor. With fancy carpets and a new unique statue puzzle. There are four clayman statues in a room, and one of them holds the key to the floor vault. Attack the correct one to get the key instantly, attack the wrong one and they all become hostile. There is one note on each of the first three combat floors, each of which rules out one of the statues.
Originally I wasn’t quite sold on the simplistic textures for the claymen, but I think they look a lot better in game than they did in Blender.
Also there’s a new feature room with three chests in it, two of which are mimics. It can spawn on any floor that has a room bigger than 3×7 or 7×3.
One request that keep popping up is for the option to customize Chloe’s breast size. I was going to use the new layered animation system coming to blender, to possibly add another animated blend like the belly scaling that’s in the game currently.
But it looks like the system won’t be coming anytime soon, so I added an option to scale Chloe’ breast bones to the customization menu.
The option needs to be enabled in the settings menu and will use the breast physics during cinematics when the value is above 1.
It was meant to just be a temporary goofy bonus feature for the early access builds, but it works surprisingly well even at higher values. It does have a lot of clipping issues though, especially during cinematics.
It would be great to have a fully working procedural system in place, instead of adding on more animation work. So I’ll be experimenting some more with it when I have the time.
Other than that there are some new decor tiles scattered around the dungeon. There needs to be a lot more for variation but i feel they already break up the monotony of the floor designs even if there are just a couple of them.
Thank you all so much for your support.
