There Will Be Ink – 1.0.1.0 – Fixes, Balance, Tactical Mode Additions

Ahoy mateys!
I’ve got a bunch of fixes for this update, as well as some tweaks and additions. The player base has jumped in part thanks to pirates, arr, which at least leads to people breaking things in new and interesting ways, which in turn results in more (anonymous) crash reports when something goes wrong. Thank you to all the players who have purchased the game and given it a try. Please send me an email (hi[at]summitfevergames[dot]com) if you notice any other bugs and I will be happy to fix them.

Also, although the launch sale on Steam is over, the game is still on sale on itch.io (includes a Steam key) for a couple more days.

Thanks!
