fixedWelcome NPR ListenersAdditionally, we have refreshed the User Interface and artwork , and introduced an original soundtrack with customizable volume controls. We also did some balancing for different decades (should be easier transition to the 1950's where the federal reserve starts to be more impactful rather than at the whims of volatility in the 20's, a massive depression in the 30's and world war II in the 40's). Various bugs have been fixed like where starting over was not starting over for the correct game mode and others.
