v2.0 - Retributor

This game was a lengthy, hellish development that I don't like to revisit often, but I at least want it to be in a decent state. I may add to it in the future to expand on the game's barely-tangible plotline since there was much cut from the game in a last-minute mad-rush to finish it. We'll see!
