Whenever we're developing a new Alpha version, there's always some stuff that needs to be cut from the final build because we don't have enough time to implement it properly. It happened back with Alpha 0.1 (which was missing the Aguamarina Caves and the houses interiors) and it has happened too with Alpha 0.2 which we released a few weeks ago. 

Instead of leaving that content to the next Alpha version, we usually like to release a big update in between bigger releases so players don't have to wait for that much for those features.

So, today, we're bringing you this update for the Alpha 0.2, including a bunch of new features and improvements!
