Version 0.8.4 brings a new dynamic to dying and Re-spawning to the game. Now, when 'Wacked' by Scarecrows, you will lose half your gold (if you even have any) - but you will also be rescued by Jasper, and Re-spawn in the house! This makes the game feel less hardcore when it comes to death of the player, exactly what I was after when introducing Jobs.  Perhaps later there can be an optional hardcore mode where Death means Game Over.  Enjoy the update!
