With big thanks to everyone who's given feedback from the beta, I've ironed out a lot of little niggling problems. There was an error right near the start which only JackOfBullets actually mentioned so (a) thanks to Jack! and (b) well done to everyone else for apparently getting past it. The other main issues were with how the jewel story-arcs were playing out, which a couple of you noted, so thanks for that too.
The final release is the same game as the beta but with loads of minor improvements, mostly backend. The main change you'll see is there's now a discoverable telescope to give some close-up shots (this added over 30 new images). There's also a couple of extra achievements but these point to things that were already possible. I also tweaked the sounds and timings of them quite a lot, and corrected some other little things probably only I will notice!
Though I haven't added more, it's quite possible there are a few endings that weren't available during the beta because of errors in the code, which should be open now (such as the various growth endings).
I've also since updated the hints & tips page on my website if you want any extra help.
The game will be up in stores tomorrow, with an animated trailer to follow, so please spread the word if you can, and otherwise I hope you enjoy the final result! And if you notice any outstanding problems, do let me know.
