First alpha update and peek into story

Today we have released our first update for our alpha testers. It includes some behind-the-scenes changes and a short introduction to the story.

---

What we have done:

• Additions:
  • Story intro.
  • Pillars (obstacles can now be rendered with different sizes and are rendered over characters that stand behind it).
  • A circle of pillars containing the eye. Use "stonecircle" as a location id for teleporting.
  • Evil flowers; but only a test texture because lack of time.
  • Particle effect when obtaining a new form.
• Changes:
  • Teleport command now supports locations and is used like this: teleport("location name") or teleport("x, y")
  • The firestone is now permanent and is dropped by the firedemon.
  • The gameover screen now has a "back to menu" button and looks much better.
  • Room generation is now shown in intro.
• Fixes:
  • Player starts in a specifically designed room (which is empty at the moment, but that will be changed). [0000017]
  • Infinite attack bug.
  • Mobs are now waiting a certain period of time before they attack if the player entered a room. This prevents instant kills without time to react.

And a picture from the intro:
