Original release notes

v1.1 - bring your own art and sound.

You asked for imports. Here they are.

CAST & MEDIA
- Import your own character art, backgrounds, music and sound for each project, from Photos or Files
- Name an import and the script uses that name: show maren left, bg "pier", music "theme"
- Anything you do not import keeps its drawn stand-in, so a scene is never left with a hole in it

NEW SCRIPT DIRECTIVES
- music "track" to loop a track, music stop to end it
- sound "name" for one-shot sound effects
- fx shake, fx flash, fx fade in and fx fade out for screen effects

ALSO
- Story sound can be switched off in Settings
- Saves written in v1.0 load unchanged
- Fixed: a character whose name begins with end no longer ends the scene by accident
