After someone told me the skip intro button didn't work I went and investigated. Actually a few things were unset for some reason, and I've managed to fix it.

The intro video is loud in any case. So I've now set the volume for it a lot lower. No need to make anyone deaf! That said, it does sometimes seem to still revert to the old volume. Luckily the skip intro button should now work again, so it should be able to get skipped from the options menu for those still experiencing issues (just scroll down in the options menu and tick the box 'skip intro').

More updates are coming and a few of them are quite large. We're doing the best with the tools we have currently and we'll keep you guys posted on anything significant!
