Quality Of Life Improvements


Some new stuff that's been added/fixed since half a year ago:

- BETTER MUSIC: Through a license to FL Studio, it's become possible to make modern, crisp music with high-quality DAWs which has already replaced all the Chiptune-style soundtrack!

- NEW WEAPON: "VULTURE" MAGNUM REVOLVER! Basically just a revolver with some cooldown between shots to not make it too overpowered. It holds 6 bullets, fires with extraordinary precision and packs a good punch! 

- SAVE DATA: Don't get confused - there's nothing to unlock yet. The game automatically saves your last selected loadout from the Hideout and your previously set options instead of replacing everything with default values every time you enter either Options Menu. Save data can be located under "C:\Users\(Username)\AppData\LocalLow\Lighter Games\The Midwave Story".

- CUSTOM SOUND VOLUME: An essential QoL upgrade - you now can fine-tune the sound volume of the Music, Sound Effects and Voices in the game besides the master volume.


Other minor changes:

- Added an "intro cutscene" to the Nightlake Station stage

- Added a HUD icon of the currently equipped weapon on top of the ammunition display

- Added alternative cursor (for outside of combat)

- Upgraded menu navigation slightly by making it possible to just press ESC instead of clicking "Return" when trying to back out from another menu screen

- Altered the texture of a spent shell in the Shatterbuck ammunition display to make it look more distinguishable from a normal shell

- Swapped 2D sprites of ejected casings with 3D models

- Recolored Spitfire SMG's muzzle flash to green

- Fixed a bug with the HUD where the ammunition display for the Spitfire SMG would sometimes react with a delay to the player firing

- Overall increased damage and reload speed on all weapons

- Default values for the Hideout and Options Menu only apply if the player doesn't have a save file
