Interim update release / Ukrainian localization and localization tools

Good health, dear Cossacks!!! The time has come!!! We finally finished this incredibly tedious, long, boring update. Yes, it's probably not what you expected, we know :). But this is an important step for us personally, and we think we don't need to explain why. In addition, not only was the localization improved, but the entire game was rebuilt for easy translation into other languages!!! Now, in general, to translate the game, you don't need to add anything to the game's Ren`py files (well, almost), you just need to translate everything in the initialized files of another language and copy the styles for the interface from the Ukrainian version (those who have been involved in the translation understand what the point is). In some places, the English has been corrected very seriously and some dialogs have been changed (there will be a separate post for this). One of the features, for example, is the translation of a large number of buttons in the game right in the code, you don't need to do it in Photoshop. Also available for everyone is the dev_tools.rpy file, where you will find other auxiliary tools for quick playthroughs and debugging the game (if needed). This is the first and largest version of the general optimization for the game's translation, and it will be further supplemented and commented on general and specific points in the translation code. We'll also be posting a lot of information about the main 0.05 update in the near future, as we definitely have a lot to tell and show you. The 0.05 update tracker will also be available very soon. So stay tuned for more news. Budmo!!! Stand with Ukraine!!!

P.S. It also took us a while to move to an apartment, so the update should have come out earlier. Sorry, but this issue was life and death for us ^o^.
