Hi everyone! I've been continuing to work on getting everything ready for the demo build. The main things added this week are redesigns for all the menus I didn't finish last week, support for multiple save files, and some progress on styling all the levels. Additionally there were a variety of functionality improvements, bug fixes and various other tweaks. I think the game is really shaping up!
Here's the Save File selection UI (playtime and last played time aren't implemented yet).
And here's a gif of the Level Quick Select Menu in action.
