Original Introduction-
Spoiler
So I thought it was about time I posted a topic on this. It's really not getting much attention, and I doubt this will help but oh well. At least it will give me a place to post about any updates we decide to add.Also, I apologize for all the bugs. Being as burnt out as I was when I packed this, I tested it on my computer instead of a virtual machine as usual so it located the missing files on my computer. It's not excuse, just my explanation. I will be fixing the problems over the weekend and adding more, but I won't have internet access all weekend and I haven't had access to my computer since I made v1.00 so I won't be able to provide any fixes until Monday (20140707), or if something unexpected happens Saturday (20140705). Thank you.

Bugs/Warnings
The game currently crashes after the first level due to missing audio (not something I can fix since I'm not home right now.)Never mind, made a temporary fix for it.- Currently, the enemies on each map are randomly generated. Don't bother learning their placement.
- Bug where if you press any of the arrow keys during the cut-scene you might need to press 'down' before you can continue through them.
- Currently the levels are really easy
- Game Stalls before third level
