Frolic Release

The Frolic Release

Changes

• Added WebGL build
• Data conversion
• Bug fixes

Converted event information loading from local to online

This changes the way that event titles and descriptions are now loaded. Rather than loading from the local events.txt file events will connect using Unity web host services and Get the most updated GitHub information. This should allow for faster information fixes without the need for new builds.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue #6, Mac builds are now bundled and troubleshooting instructions are provided in the README
• Fixed issue #3, behavior no longer observed.

Usability Release

Changes

• As per user request when clicking the Back Button on an event's description instead of loading the Main Menu it goes back to the previous scene
• Events.txt clone has been removed. Previously events.txt was stored in the Main directory but there was a clone of it in the Assets/StreamingAssets directory for code usage. The events.txt in the Main directory has now been deleted for simplicity and clarity. The links to it in README.md have been changed accordingly
• This release also brings builds for Mac OS, Linux, and Windows 32-bit alongside the base Windows 64-bit build

Bug Fixes

Issue #4 is fixed, clicking on event 22 now displays its description correctly rather than the placeholder
Issue #5 is fixed, pressing the back button now correctly redirects
