v0.0.3 - New Prestige System + Steam Page

Thanks to everyone who tried Simultree!

I was not expecting that much players and support from a jam game, but it was amazing.

I’ve decided to continue working on Simultree and make it my second Steam game. If you want to support, Wishlist the game on Steam!

Also, since this is my first time working on an incremental game (and don’t know the genre that much), please give me some feedbacks on if I’m going in the right direction or not, and on what you’d like to see in Simultree.

TL;DR:

• Add first draft of Prestige system that emphasis player choices and improve the general gameplay progression.
• Add 3 new entity.
• Add 3 new items.
• Balancing and improvements
