V40: Worlds within
So I wasn't expecting this update to take nearly 4 months, but here we are. Thank you for your patience. The changelog has gotten so long, organising it has actually become somewhat of an issue. I'm writing this after the fact, and editing this took 6 hours. The main features outside of the new content and background architectual changes that took a good portion of the dev time I guess are controller/direction key support, a pile of accessibility options, explorable forests and villages, balance changes including heavy modification of the 'overkill heal' system; now requiring the 'well rested' status, the ability to drag-rearrange tiles and consumables in combat, the ability to drag items onto your avatar in the player screen to use them, and a bunch of other polish and quality of life changes.
General:
- Fixed a stats migration related crash outside of Steam.
- Fixed a crash if you manage to trigger two screen transitions in a single frame.
- Fixed the build time issue that was preventing Linux builds from using Love version 11.5.
- Fixed the Linux-native Steam version not correctly loading Steam-API libraries.
- Moved the save directory, renamed a bunch of important stuff around that, and created a migration script for the important stuff.
- Saving now uses the string buffer so truly massive saves now serialize significantly faster.
- You will likely not notice a difference, but on the off-chance that you had a save with a few hundred thousand entries, it will now save in a few seconds instead of a day.
- Changed the default user config and added a selection of default colour swatches.
- Removed the option to hide the options button.
- Added the option to disable automatic moving of 'stash after combat' items to the end of your inventory after combat.
- Made numerous sections of UI look a bit fancier.
- Renamed the options screen tabs to 'world' and 'combat' instead of 'overworld' and 'adventure'.
- Item selection screens now go on two rows if there's more than 5 items and can no longer show more than 1 of a given item.
- Fixed two-button dialogues with hardcoded hotkeys being able to activate a disabled option.
- Fixed a minor draw issue where blurry parallax backgrounds that haven't been otherwise used that session sometimes have tiling issues near the left edge of the screen.
Accessibility:
- Added directional key support and moved some minor UI elements around so they're easier to navigate around with directional keys.
- The shrine minigame now use an off-white stone textured tile, and the lettering is no longer colourised with the rest of the tile.
- Added the ability to change the colours used on the shrine minigame.
- Added the ability to add a pattern to the colours in the shrine mini game.
- HSV sliders now have coloured backgrounds showing what the sliders do.
- The number keys are no longer hard coded as activating consumables, and can be configured to activate consumables or equipment or nothing along with the numpad.

New game:
- Restructured the customisations into tabs.
- If a new class is unlocked upon checking the new game screen, it will now actually tell you.
- Changed the random colour button icon to something more indicative.
- You can now press escape to back out of selecting a curse or boon, instead of it opening the options screen.
- You can now select an arbitrary number of curses and boons to start with.
- Having a curse/boon selection of a negative total gold value now gives you -10% to gold drops from defeating enemies and chests per 100 gold.
- Renamed the world option 'adventures length' to 'enemy count'.
- The enemy count option now has 2 additional intermediate options. The options and their mean values now being Pocket:3, Abridged:6, Complete:12, Extended:18, and Definitive:24.
- Fixed the anomaly opens drumroll starting during the opening quote when starting as the demonkin.
Classes:
- Added a work-in-progress alchemist class.

- Updated the sprite to give animations for shielding, death with recoil, casting, casting on self, drinking, and sitting, and added additional layers.

- Added sprite for using the tower shield.
Overworld:
- Added sub-worlds for villages and forests, which contain new location types, including different types of shops for villages.
- Added a 3rd village icon, for rare tiny villages that have no upgrades for sale.
- Completing locations now has variable time costs for the hidden world time tracker, particularly for sub-world locations.

- Fixed sometimes having to select off and back on a location for the selection to work correctly.
- The selection boxes of the anomaly and the capital are now a bit better.
- Clicking in between the area buttons no longer closes that part of the UI.
Map generation:
- Fixed occasional boxy-grid artifacting on the world map near coastlines.

- Nodes will now only initially try to connect to the nearest ~10 nodes with initial rules.
- Mildly optimised tile placement on overworld for less overlapping.
- Oak forest will now also have 'forest names' instead of just pine forest.
- Slightly improved the coast visuals when burned.
- The node connecting to the anomaly now always has its level set to 7 even if its somehow out of the increased level area.
- There was code to force it to be set incomplete regardless, but it'd still be level 0 so it was meaningless as a penultimate dungeon.
Pathing:
- You can now path through incomplete nodes if they would complete on visit as if they already were complete.
- Fixed an occasional bug where it will ignore move orders given in the middle of another move order.
- You can now travel from an uncompleted location to another uncompleted location if either of them is a sub-world with a completed sub path to/from that direction.
Events:
- Replaced the old 'village is under attack' event with half a dozen based on which part is under attack, where you arrived in relation to that, if you teleported in, what class you are, and if you're wearing paladin armour.
- The dying paladin event can no longer trigger in or at villages.
- The assassin and demonkin now have an intimidate option on the highwayman event.
- The highwayman event can no longer happen inside villages, but can happen outside of them, and is no longer guaranteed to trigger.

Rest:
- Added a rest screen for better representation of its effects.
- Removed 'skip rest confirmation' as an option, since it's now redundant.
- Fixed the listed rest heal values not including multipliers. You'd still heal the correct amount though.
- The dreamcatcher now specifies that it makes ! tiles 'fall off'.
- The wild ruby now affects ! tiles that fall off during resting due to the dreamcatcher.
- Resting at an inn now gives +1 to you the 'well rested' status. You need a tent or bedroll for campfires to do the same.
Shops:
- Shops no longer clear out sold-out items on swapping pages.
- Removed the 'drag to sell' option in favour of 'ignore first tap'.
- Activating 'auto sell' now creates coin particles like selling them individually.
Inventories:
- You can now use items on the inventory screens by dragging them onto the player.
- Renamed the 'Tiles/use' tab of the inventory to just 'Tiles', because you can use on any of them now.
- Fixed the player Tiles tab crashing if you've not gone into combat already that session.
- The inventory screens now update for screen width changes without requiring backing out and going back in.
- Fixed a slight misalignment in the item hover graphic in the inventory when the screen has been arbitrarily resized.
- The players health bar on the inventory now stays in the same position relative to other UI elements regardless of screen aspect ratio.
Items:
- The bonus from the infinitives gauntlet and its components no longer counts for the words 'ING', 'ES' and 'ED', only words ending in them. LY isn't a valid word.

- Fixed the green worm idol resetting X Y and Z tiles to their default material regardless of what it should have been.
- Changed the graphic of the gear item slot upgrade to include the wood thingy that backs the item screen UI.
- Fixed the gilded pommel effect. For reals this time.

- The basic book of four-heal description now includes an example.
- The wooden idol buckler and its components now only highlight if the attack is estimated to kill the enemy.
- The wooden idol and things it crafts into now heal 4 instead of 8.
- Fixed some overly complicated maths processes for the mindfog dagger and safety matches, that were causing weird unintended effects with spells.
- It was getting added as 'score' in the calculation, then removed from the damage and converted into the relevant status for the damage calculation. Problem was for spells, this second step either wasn't happening, or was happening after spell multipliers, resulting in the additional/bonus status getting counted as 'base score'.
- Reworded the bastard sword and beige thumb descriptions to make it clear that they add score that's converted into status if it's an attack.
- Reworded the shortsword to make it clear that it affects score.
- The tinderbox can now also be activated to create a temporary campfire in some locations.

- Redid the shading on the silver cup icon.
- "Two material stages" for the voiceless rough stone charm now includes gold-bordered silver.
- Fixed tiles from the monstrous jade not displaying modifier icons if they were modified.
- Replaced the graphics for the adrenaline shot, also internally reworked it, but externally it functions about the same.
- You can now use any type of item outside of combat by dragging them onto your player avatar.
- For consumables and alchemy pieces this adds only convenience over what could have been accessed from the tiles tab, previously the tiles/use tab.
- Changed the description of the alchemy pieces to more generically indicate this.
- Consumables that affect the tile board still require you to be on the tiles screen, and will tell you as much if you try to use them without it.

- No longer auto activates at the end of combat

- The tile repellent potion is now 4 uses of 2-turns of protection, rather than 1 use of 8, and has new graphics.

- Added an effect to the dying status that makes it so that spell effects give you fewer tiles based on how long you've been dying.

Excess damage:
- You now need 'well rested' to heal from excess damage, which decays when by 1 each time you do.
- The curse of greed now gives you the same amount of gold as you'd have gotten health from the overkill, instead of double.

Pre-combat:

- You can now drag-rearrange consumables mid-combat, and letters in words.
- The tile hover effect is now faster.
- Tile overlay layers now respect the drawn alpha of the tile. One result of this is burning selected tiles are now more readable.
- Fixed a minor issue where enemy health bars will be out of position for the first frame.
- Added an additional visual effect when items are activated and when certain effects trigger.

- Enemy adventurers can now randomly wear a duck hat. Bosses are more likely.
- Enemies that'd run away when not on full life can no longer spawn as bosses if fleeing doesn't count for area completion.
- There are currently none, but the statuses are implemented. This was already true for enemies that run on less than half specifically.
- Using the free refresh from the heavy tile bag in front of an immobile enemy such as a chest gives you refresh fatigue preventing further refresh until either they die, run away (if they somehow become no longer-immobile), any enemy attacks you, or you make it to a wait phase.

- Fixed tooltips and achievement notifications being drawn 5 times and processing 5 times faster on the arcade screen.

- Added all-time stats.
- Combat stats now track the combat settings, like the level.
- Finishing an arcade challenge on 0 health no longer implies you failed in a stats description, and now has a unique message for that situation.
- Fixed a stats crash if a player entry had between 1 and 4 words in it.
- Fixed the player stats entry longest words checking the length of the best word of the same index when deciding which font to render as. (Only mattered in cases with words longer than 16 letters.)

- Changed the definition of thot to a noun form.
- Added definitions for months of the year that didn't have non-proper-noun definitions.
- Added/fixed definitions for NATO phonetic alphabet letters that didn't have other definitions.
- Added definitions for days of the week.
- Added definition for gussied and sterner.
Definition parsing:
- Fixed the Wiktionary template parsing function interpreting the arguments of nested templates as arguments of the parent.
- Fixed definitions that only consist of a single template followed by a space and one or more category links causing a crash. This affected arcsin and probably others.
- Fixed the last three definition sanitisation steps not being applied.
- Fixed appending inflection of- and similar definitions with a colon where it tried to pull the source words definition, but failed or was an empty string.
- UTF8 errors in word definitions when shown in tooltips and on the almanac dictionary page will now show the error message in place of the definition rather than crash the game.
- Fixed the Wiktionary definition parsing function trying to strip brackets off of undefined template data that had no brackets potentially splitting multi-byte characters, causing a UTF8 error.
- This affected: enyay, enyays, ogonek, alef, aleph, alephs, bromite, dammas, de, fermata, fermatas, fermate, fatha, fathas, arsenite, arsenites, sukuns, sukun, damma, dyun, nasalized, kha, shadda, and the etymology of warm.
- Added handling for a few dozen more Wiktionary templates, mostly form of-variants.
- Added form-of template support for 'from' labels.
- Definitions with maths representations will now show '(unsupported maths representation)', rather than it trying and probably failing to represent it.
- Fixed definitions not stripping Wiktionary category links. Affected 279 definitions.

Help! I'm addicted to this game! 😅
That's a massive amount of work. Handsomely done.
I haven't tried this newest version yet, but having chugged through the changelog, I look forward to doing so.
