And May has come and is nearly gone!
Lots of stuff happening internally (good stuff!) I was able to polish out some important story details regarding the end of Act 1 and the transition into Act 2. More or less used to git now as well.
Anyways, as far as the rest of 0.0.15 RC goes we've got a new dialogue scene with Garland. I was debating making this optional but decided not to. So for now its required. Feel free to drop some feedback if you think otherwise!
Also fixed that crash that hit a lot of people when a mini-cg is displayed while the "FAST" feature is used.

We've also got the updated Camp Outskirts map. Like the others, this also isn't final but will serve us for a while unless the eventual graphics upgrade.
I guess one thing I forgot to mention in the snapshot post is what "first part of the Golden Barrel story line" means in the patch notes. Basically each of our shopkeeps will have their own secondary story-line with a conclusion. The beginning of their storylines will be part of the main story but continuing them beyond a certain point will be up to the player. If the player decides to complete their storylines, the main story can be affected.
