Build 0.0157
This update focuses on the re-balancing of skills, skill book costs, skill point requirements, and skill effect values per level. Some of the skill effect values have also changes. These changes will correspond with the upcoming changes to the skill book system.

The next update will focus on a few UI tweaks and QoL additions, modifications to the cloak system, and a number of object folder data file balances. I know I said I would be doing 12 updates before releasing v1.0. It's close, but not there yet. I will continue with the updates until I nail down some loose mechanics, and redo the tutorial. I will try to get out these updates weekly like I have been, However, I do foresee a few of them requiring a couple weeks or more as to avoid (in progress) tutorial quests. Anyway, the development continues.
