Added a "fast forward" feature

Summary

Added a “fast forward” button to address timer reset issues on mobile devices.

Details

After hosting the app on itch.io and testing it on my mobile device, I noticed that the timer would reset randomly. This would cause the game to start over making it impossible to reach the end of the story. The issue appeared to be due to default browser privacy settings meant to restrict cross-site tracking through localStorage on the client device.

To resolve this, I added a “fast forward” feature. This is accessed through a button that will show up after decoding the current message and allows players to progress through the story at their own pace, regardless of the state of the 24-hour game timer.

Although it totally destroys my original vision, the change is better overall because it allows players to actually play the full game in one sitting.

Other devs, if you are reading, have you had to deal with this problem before on HTML5 games on here?
