Good morning, roof

A small update, but it's the first thing everyone sees.

Until now a new game cut straight from the title screen to the loft floor, close up, and you waited a few seconds for Mara to walk in with not much to look at. Now a new game opens wide on the roof at dawn: the sky coming up over the city, the water towers, the loft with your first two birds inside, and a few wild pigeons sitting on the parapet. Then the view drifts down into the loft while Mara comes in. Tap anywhere if you'd rather skip straight to it.

On phones, the row of supply numbers along the top now waits until Mara's first lesson is done. You don't need to know how much seed is on the shelf before you've met your pigeons, and the screen is a lot calmer for it.

Nothing about saves or the rules changed. Lofts you already have carry on exactly where they were.

Here's the new opening:
