Fixes

  • Candle and LightsAdded extra colliders to the glasses so if they fall on their side, they don't penetrate the floor

  • Fan level: Camera pan range and position were off, couldn't see George!

  • Fan level: Can now put ball on either side of trough and get full points

  • Heater level—cat was hovering in space! Gravity turned back on for him

  • Heater level: If cat is placed on the right side of the seesaw, he no longer penetrates the heating pad when he jumps

  • Help text now resets each time you enter screen, and pause to scroll also resets

  • Changed red font on the Rewards screen numbered buttons to white to make it more legible

  • Much higher resolution Reward images after you complete a level. So now if you zoom in shouldn't be so pixelated

  • Picking up Ook in tutorial should be easier

  • Yellow boxes around captions shown during the running of the invention now expand as needed so text will always fit

  • Consistent use of << button on screens, and now << always plays the same saxophone sound
