Almohadin: escape from the basement - Talio

I just added full presence integration for Steam and Discord. Now, when entering a level or staying in the menu, a "current status" will appear as a text display on the user's profile. This way, other people will be able to see which level you're trying to play or how you're progressing.

That's all for today. More news coming soon! I'm learning and improving a lot.
