Update 0.0.4 - Bit o' Branding


It's been a good amount of months since the last update, huh? Well, most of that time was spent at college and working on the latest and greatest version of another one of my projects, so Izcool admittedly hasn't gotten much attention. This update is just a very quick little patch to modernize the branding to be in line with my other stuff at the moment, as well as get rid of some weird practices.

  • Updated branding to current PJSim one, including removing a defunct Perfect Acorn Discord link. Perfect Acorn as a whole has been gone for two years now, and while I was considering for a time to use it as a "one person company" sort of thing, I've recently decided to just go with what I use for my social media presence - better than having two seemingly separate entities to juggle around. The Discord was also totally dead, and I'd have no desire to have to moderate it if it wasn't, since I'm pretty busy with other stuff.
  • The registry is no longer used to store which save file to autoload, instead opting to read from a file. If the old registry key is found, it will be deleted for you. The registry is a bit too permanent of a solution for my liking, especially in a currently portable and alpha-stage game.
  •  Removed obnoxious anti-corruption file checking measures. Izcool would check if the save data existed and was readable every time a stage started - sounds good, but in practice is a totally unnecessary process, since the data already needs to be in good condition to even start the game.

So that's all for this update! I'm not sure what I want to do now that I'm done with the other project linked above, so I don't want to promise anything at the moment. Keep an eye out!
