Gotta say, when I saw "Inventory Update", I expected more inventory slots, not less. Making it so that stacking potions/sponges doesn't take up just one slot makes the inventory feel much worse. Also, it makes money matter even less once you get past the first phases (although that doesn't necessarily matter that much) since you can't stock up on a bunch of items.
Honestly, I generally think that adding an inventory limit just isn't the best call, since it gets in the way of a lot of things. I get why it seems like a good choice, since this is supposedly an RPG or something, which would have inventory limits."
I do really like the new scene though.
