Glossary!
There is now a Glossary--accessible from almost every passage--to identify every character, place name, and a few archaeological/cultural concepts. So if you don't know who someone is, now you can look it up! :)
...that being said, a few caveats about the Glossary. First, because this already had so many passages, I put the entire Glossary in one passage, which is about 17,000 words long, so it will take a few seconds to load. Second, the only way I could figure out to code that without forcing you to scroll down past every single full entry meant that I had to put the entries in pop-up messages. Which is fine, except that you can only see an entry once without have to leave the Glossary and come back. :( Whatever other engine I eventually remake this game in, I'll make sure it can handle this stuff better. (Or rather I'll try to learn what I'm doing with the engine first, instead of trying to figure it out as I go!)
I fixed a lot of errors in the post-war events and epilogues. I don't dare claim to have gotten rid of all of them (though I hope I did), but I definitely got all the worst of them.
Also, the new version is playable in the browser without having to download and unzip first. :) And the save and load menus are available on almost all passages, instead of just at the beginning of a year.
Unfortunately, all my screenshots are gone, and when I reupload them they go straight into broken jpg mode. I have no idea what's going on there. :( It's afflicting all my games (one of them even lost its cover image!), but I'm not sure why. I'm hoping it's actually something on itch.io's end, and they'll have it fixed soon.
