Alpha 0.28 Release - Bug Fixes. A LOT of them.

Good day to all of you my fellow Patrons. Thank you all for being here today with me.

This month's alpha is being released, and as I said last month I would focus this month to fix a lot of things that I was putting on side notes and sticker papers on my PC Case and stuff like that, things that may look very simple and easy but were a headache to do and I knew I would spend a month doing them.

So, let's go to the entire changelog:

•  The Credits section on the Title Screen now scales properly.
• The Gallery code now has the section for Scale too, so it will work in any (mostly) resolution with some odd exceptions I doubt anyone would ever use.
• The Gallery code now has a "starter resolution" check, in which it will position everything on the correct and best placement at the start of the game once the game sets the primary resolution based on your screen resolution.
• The default size of the window is now 1280x900 to work better with the Gallery code and other resolution-related code. It also fits better with the resolutions the game was made thinking of. 
• The Credits Roll now fits the screen no matter what your resolution is. (It SHOULD work at any starter resolution and if for any reason it's not, first try to maximize your game AND send me a bug report. )
• The HINT for skipping the credits is now positioned on the left side of the screen.
• Fixed a very serious issue that would prevent you to save your game if you were at the Hotel Restaurant. 
• Zoom-In characters sprite's state is now saved and persists after a load-game. No old save file should be affected by it, but the new variable will be saved on it if you rewrite your old save.
• A lot of smaller fixes that you shouldn't be able to see in-game but the game compiler would scream at me every time I ran the game were fixed. (Thank you Godot for allowing the game to run even if you keep giving me Critical errors on the compiler. I wonder HOW the game was able to run for the past two years or so. Maybe those errors aren't as critical as you want me to believe.)

So, with that, this alpha is essentially the same as 0.27, but the bug fixes were enough to change a lot internally and at the gameplay, so I gave it a minor number instead of a fixed number. Not only that, I already decided that I need to do more changes such as changing the size of the Save/Load screen, I think it's too small now that the game has a higher "base resolution", however, he is also a Design change not only a code-related change since all the buttons would "get bigger/wider" and the content inside must fit properly not to look weird, so I pushed that change to a few alphas or during any free time I may have.

I know Just Friend's development is slow, and I'm sorry about that. I'm working solely on this game, so please if you wanna support it more, talk to your friends, see if they want to be a tier 1 patron for a month just so their name can be added to the credits of the game, that would help me a lot too.  Maybe where you live, things are getting better, Cov*d is now almost a thing of the past and the government is at least less nocive than before but here, sadly, things are going to get worse by the day, so I appreciate you guys sticking with me helping me for one more month. It may seem like it's not much for you guys but it means the difference between having money to pay my bills or not, so thank you so much for your support. 

Don't forget this game already have a public demo (it's mostly an alpha but I called a demo just for the show) on itch.io and you can always send that to ANY friend you want. Share that demo with any people you like, that will help me a lot.

And on that note, there are still a few backgrounds that need to be drawn, but I'm already seeing with the artist how we can finish them as fast as possible so we can start working on the more "intimate" scenes. There's one on Day 3 for Karnal, and some more for other future days they are fairly complex so I want the backgrounds to be done first.

But before all that, after the fifth day is done for both Karnal and Wagner, I wanna start working on the new character too, so maybe you'll guys will have his sprites sooner than later. So lemme ask you guys this:

What species should the last character be?
I'm pretty sure by now you guys already know what the original idea was but I wanna know of all of you, so if you have a preferred species I would love to hear of it to put it into consideration! His personality/story won't change, so please tell me what you like you want! 

Anyway, thank you all so much for your support, later today the pool for Tier 3+ patrons will be online, so please don't forget to vote on what you want for the next alpha!
