Unfortunately, the damn bug continues in version 1.0, which left me a little discouraged. Apparently I will have to start over whenever there is news.
Phew, I finally realized that the true version of the game is always the latest one. Sadly, it "shows" the version of the savefile.
If you saved in v0.9.0 and loaded it to v1.0.0, the game will still be v1.0.0, no matter what it tells you.
So, false alarm. Thank you for your feedback, I'm working on the solution!
