Update: - Added New playable character, RogueElf, to the map menu. - Added collectable Tokens to the first 2 zones which must be collected to unlock RogueElf.

  Patch 1.02c Achievements and small bugfix

  Hey there. Just a small update. Bug fixes: - Fixed an issue with audio level not being remembered when exiting and entering the application. Update: - Added steam integration and steam achievements to the game. Known issues** It appears that a watermark at the left hand bottom of the screen has appeared stating "trial version" where on previous builds there were none. This seems to be an issue on Unity's end and is currently under investigation. Please bare with is in the meantime as I have chosen to go ahead with this build release for the sake of including achievements in the game. This game is the full release and not a trial. Thank you for your understanding!
