Hello, everyone. I am pleased to announce a new localization option for Chinese (Simplified).

This translation covers text, interface and a handful of drawn images. I've elected to leave English onomatopoeia untouched.

This is a professional translation by Ivan Niu of Localize Direct, and while I'm confident that it is of high quality, please be aware that I am not a native speaker. If you notice an issue that slipped past me during playtesting let me know in the discussion forums.

Additional changes / fixes:

An appropriate localization option is now auto-selected by querying system language (first run only)
Font options are now limited on a per-language basis
Fixed several instances of localized panel variants not displaying correctly

Thank you for your support!
