Quality of Life Improvements

• Keyboard Shortcuts Menu: Added a new section in Settings that lists all available keyboard shortcut options.

• Toggle Kind Mode Anytime: Players can now turn Kind Mode on or off at any point via the smiley face icon next to their character's name in the top-left corner. Note: This option is unavailable if the character has Permadeath Mode enabled, as the two modes are incompatible.

• Creature Morality Indicators: Creatures now display a red/gray/green color-coded morality alignment during initial encounters.

• Speed Status Indicator: Your character's speed stat now shows if you’re currently affected by a temporary slow or speed boost by saying (Slowed) or (Boosted) by your current speed.
