This are the release notes for H-World 0.2.8

Again there are only a few new things included but due to the long
time since the last release I thought it'd be good to release a new
version that at least includes the few changes that have been made.

New features in this release:

- player starts with a pack mule in this release (this is somewhat
  experimental, I assume in later versions the mule will have to be
  bought or is given as reward to the player).
- bottles can be emptied now (suggested by Paul Pekkarinen)
- movement of PC looks less like floating now


The other changes are mostly bug fixes and internal changes that do
not affect gameplay.
