Feature Updates - Merchant Stats / Upgrade System

Art Update - Main Menu and Game Logo
A much needed art update for the Ten Thousand Coins game logo has been done in this update. A big improvement from the previous old iteration. Small changes and improvements will still be made to it over the course of alpha development.
Art Update - Sharpened Graphics and New Cursor
Most of the in game art assets have been sharpened, as they looked a bit blurry, especially on a big screen. This was a big improvement on the overall aesthetic appeal. A new cursor art has been made as well.
Misc - Local Game Developers Meetup Showcase
Ten Thousand Coins was shown at our local game developers meetup here in Auckland, NZ. The feedback gotten from playtesting was very useful, so thank you all who tried the demo!
