CHANGES
The enchantment glint for items in the inventory has been made more visible
The default value of the "Glint Strength" setting has been reduced to 75%
Potions no longer have an enchantment glint due to it obscuring the color of the potion contents

ACCESSIBILITY
Added a built-in resource pack that enhances the contrast of UI elements
The resource pack can be enabled in the Accessibility Options screen or manually in the Resource Pack screen
This is only available in the menus for now, but the developers will be looking to bring this to gameplay UIs in the future as well
UPDATED CREATE NEW WORLD SCREEN
