Why do you need an updater when the installation process is as simple as unzipping contents into a directory?

You can even unzip the new release over the previous one most of the times.

In order to have mods and tilesets in an updater, we’d need to add them to the main game, at which point we might as well distribute them the same way as the game…  
I was hoping that people would PR their mods on github, but that hasn’t happened very much.
