In this devlog I started building a launcher from scratch which can automatically update the game's files. Having this sort of functionality in place is extremely convenient when it comes to distributing updates as it removes the hassle of manually sending the game's files to testers with every new version. I'm pretty happy with the UI and how far I got in this devlog, but among other things, I still need to allow the launcher to automatically update itself.

I'll be using this launcher for alpha & beta testing when I get to that stage, although I'm not entirely sure about any official releases yet.

I added a masking system to the underwater fog so that it works properly even when half of your screen is submerged and the other half isnt, and I added reflections and refraction, which have _significantly_ improved how good the water surface looks. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ The music and sound effects used in this video are sourced from the YouTube Audio Library, StreamBeats, and GameAudioGDC. ⮞ https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary ⮞ https://www.streambeats.com/ ⮞ https://sonniss.com/gameaudiogdc$
