small bug fixes

Fixed


    The Bell Tower could close behind you. In Act I, once you had entered the tower, dying or stepping back outside left you with no way in — the door would not open again. The tower door and the stairs on every floor can now be used whenever you like.
    The walk home. If you stepped back out into Gloamford during the walk home on your birthday, there was no way back into the house and the story could not continue. The front door works both ways now.
    "Missing game executable". Some of you hit this when launching after the last update. That was a mistake in our Steam setup, and it is already fixed — no download was needed for it.

    Added


      Bramfell has faces. Every villager you can speak to in Chapter 3 now has a portrait.
      Chapter 3 has its own music. Four new pieces — the village by day, the west field after dark, what happens out there, and the morning after. They are all the same song, taken apart.

      Your saves are fine. Nothing needs restarting. If you were stuck outside the Bell Tower, load your save and walk back up — the door opens.

      Thank you to the player who reported the tower. That one was ours: the tower was only ever meant to be entered once by the story, and nothing put a door back in it.
