The Junk E.T. alpha version 0.14 is finally ready for release!
This version introduces a rather large list of new content and features, primarily in the form of newly added room keys, and a stamina meter for displaying how much running power Dima has.
Additionally, we have added a bunch of new mobs (albeit with simplistic, placeholder AI for the moment), several new environments, a few new trash items, and many new effects and sounds.
A complete changelog of alpha version 0.14 is as follows:
