InfiniteShooter 0.4.1

InfiniteShooter 0.4.1!

This started out as a quick patch to fix issues with key mapping in the settings menu, but expanded to include some changes to difficulties and some more bugfixes for the game. I was going to rename this the "Oh my god, I released a broken game!" update but since then a bit more changes to the game have been made. Hope you enjoy this release and as always thanks for playing InfiniteShooter!

Changelog:

• @Frizy13 added an option to limit the frame rate of the game (Feature request: Add "FPS Limit" option to the settings menu #1 and Add "FPS Limit" option to the settings menu #2)
• Improved and simplified all popups (replaced Alert.tscn for HUDToast.tscn)
• Balanced all difficulties that weren't the default one, adding extra mechanics to bosses on harder difficulties (Feature request: Add some changes to the mechanics of the game's bosses #3)
• Added a variable to disable SelectSquare nodes
• Fixed having to re-enter the docking station once its animation finished
• Added a prompt to confirm exiting the upgrade screen
• Added an option to enable/disable V-Sync
• Attempted to make the main menu theme less god-awful (it was actually hurting my ears)
• Created a wiki to help contributing to InfiniteShooter
• Removed the option to set the keybinding to slow time
• Replaced the background of KeyPopup.tscn for SubmenuBackground

P.S
A lot has happened since the release of InfiniteShooter 0.4.0. InfiniteShooter's flatpak got on Flathub, the popularity of InfiniteShooter started to increase, and I got my first contributor! So it goes without saying, thanks for everyone who helped make this happen. Even if I sound kind of silly from time to time. And again, a special thanks to @Frizy13 for being the first contributor to InfiniteShooter. Without you, InfiniteShooter 0.4.1 wouldn't have had some of the much needed changes that it has now. Thank you all, and hope you enjoy this latest release!

I have a little question for you. It seems that for the 0.4.2 project release the changes in it are not enough, so there won't be a release anytime soon? Or will the release be soon and everything is ready for it? If you need new developments for the project, please let me know about them. Thanks in advance for the answer.

I don't think there's enough changes in 0.4.2 to release it quite yet, partly due to me not playing enough of the game to find any bugs and that I don't really know what to add to 0.4.2 that wouldn't be in 0.5.0. I do have some ideas for what I want to add to 0.5.0 though, but it's going to take quite a bit of work to program in and I'm thinking of taking a break from serious development before I start working on 0.5.0 (like opening feature requests/making commits/all that good stuff). I guess it's that all the work I did for 0.4.0 and then trying to get some publicity for the game (whatever that means) has worn me out. I'll still try to work on point releases though!
