Public Release - version 0.49

Alrighty, the new public version is up.

From your perspective, as a player, I invite you primarily to look at the Internet and the Mall, where you will find a store to browse and use to test out the new cosmetics features.

Please remember that this might not be a stable build. If you encounter a bug, report it, and I'll fix it. I rewrote about 50% of the game's code over the last weeks, and I cannot guarantee there's not some bug there that I missed.

Now on a technical level, this has been a monumental update. It's the longest I've worked consecutively on a single feature without finishing it. That is to say, shopping. Just due to how many separate moving parts ended up going into it. The shopping is a bit unorthodox, so maybe also tell me what you think about it.

I'll update the version tracker and a few more things soon. For now, I'm just tired. Consider that this week you get a release, not an update.

As for what happens next? Ehhhh... not sure yet. Next month I will be taking part in a game jam, the resulting game will be made available in the bonus section when I'm done with it. Apart from that, I want to work on some odds and ends here and there.
