Build v0.99.0 - Welcome China!

Octbuster can now be played in Simplified Chinese! The translation was done by Marshub, a team of human translators, not by a machine or AI. I'm a solo dev and that is costly, so it is one language for now, but I will try to add more in the future.

If anything in the translation reads wrong, please report it in the Discord!

patch notes:

Simplified Chinese

• The full game can now be played in Simplified Chinese.
• Change it under Settings > Gameplay > Language.
• If Steam is set to Chinese the game picks it on its own.

Tape covers are printed in Chinese too, with their own Chinese titles, and the shelves sort them by pinyin.

The tape editor works with a Pinyin IME, so you can type Chinese tape names.

Translation done by humans.

Streaming

• Chat commands typed on a Chinese keyboard work now. The full-width exclamation mark, letters, numbers and spaces all count.

Fixes

• The loading terminal now correctly keeps the "press any key" line on screen when the text above it wraps.
• Small adjustments and fixes to the in-store tape editor UI.

Have fun! -alex
