Daily Update (4/1/25) - Achievements!

Daily Update - April 1st, 2025

Happy April Fools! Today, I implemented an achievement system into the game, so that you can feel a sense of pride and accomplishment via external validation from the game itself. Lots of people like this kind of system, and I'll definitely want to support achievements once I start thinking about a steam release, so I figured it was time to put `em in! To start, there's the usual assortment of Win with each difficulty/character kind of faire, and a few more creative ones. Nothing too fancy, but I think players will appreciate having some checklist items to go after. Here's the changelog!
