Features you can actually see ingame

I added a timer, so you can see how fast you got your score! But be aware, that the timer is still running, even if you are looking at the ingame leaderboard or the options! It will reset with every new game. A new game is initiated when "Force End" / "New Game" is pressed, or all the bombs are exploded and you achieve a "Perfect Finish".

The count of "Moves" used in a try is also shown next to the timer. Just like the time you needed, the count of the "Moves" will also be written next to your score in the ingame leaderboard.

The options for the screen resolution, which were in the upper part of the screen, were moved to the "Option"-screen, because I thought it would make more sense there. I mean... these buttons literally give you an "Option"... ^^

The ingame leaderboard pretty much stayed the same, but the most upper line, where the format of the leaderboard was shown, was moved to the most lower line. The time needed and the "Moves" are now also listed in the same line as your score.

Achievements

Well, there isn't much to say here, but I thought a few new achievements would be awesome to have. I know that I like, when a game has many achievements that you can show off on your profile! <3 Even tho I tested all of them, I am a bit scared if they work as intended... I already made a mistake while developing and maybe one of you already got the new achievement, even tho it shouldn't have been possible... If you got an achievement, even tho you should NOT have gotten it, pls post it in discussions in the Community-Hub! <3

Leaderboards & Stats

I made a new Community-Hub leaderboard for the fastest "Perfect Finish". Just a reminder: A "Perfect Finish" is only reached when finishing the game with NO bombs left on the screen. When you achieve this, your time is automatically uploaded to the leaderboard and (hopefully) it is displayed in "Minutes:Seconds".

The new statistics are:

  1. X_BOMBS_AT_ONCE

  2. FASTEST_PF

  3. BOMBS_EXPLODED_GLOBAL

The first stat counts the bombs that were exploded with only one click. The second stat just stores the time of the fastest "Perfect Finish". These two stats are mainly used for the Community-Hub leaderboard, but are also used to show your stats ingame in the "Options-Screen".

The third stat counts the all time global exploded bombs. Currently I'm not using the stat but I thought it is smart to start counting as early as possible for an "as
