Repeated intro

Hey guys, I just created a beta branch that features a new build that attempts to reduce the memory usage of the game. Furthermore it reduces the size of the game files on your hard drive disk by approximately 50%. Maybe all of this combined helps to speed up the initial load time of the game as well. To opt-in to the beta branch:

  1. Right-click on "Bullets And More" in your Steam Library and select "Properties"
  2. Select the tab called "Betas"
  3. Select the "beta" branch The beta build is still compatible to the non-beta version and nothing has been removed. Basically just another compression method and a bunch of cleanup has been done to achieve this results. Warning: Switching to this beta build will basically require to re-download the whole game because every file has been affected. On the positve side the new game files should require a lot less space on your hard drive disk. Please let me know if this actually helps (especially if you experienced memory issues before). Wish you all a wonderful day and a nice weekend. :)
