Good day egg friends and friend eggs!

Bat Egg hatched one year ago today! To celebrate, I've put together a small patch.

The tutorial now shows a silhouette demonstrating the actions that the tutorial is asking the player to achieve, hopefully better communicating how some of the more tricky actions (such as the short flap) are performed.

Tutorial prompts also now has bolding for terms/concepts, which I hope makes it easier to pick out the important bits!

Story pages have a sound effect that plays as text is typing out, which makes that feel a bit more polished.

Last, but not least, the end of story mode has had some slight pacing adjustments.

Enjoy!
