  • Fixed a tutorial error that appeared in level 10 but was related to level 11.

  • Changed the descriptions of several tutorials.

  • Improved camera rotation. Now the camera rotates around a specific target instead of itself. If no path is selected, the camera rotates around the player. If at least one unit of the path is selected, the camera rotates around the last selected unit.

  • Camera sensitivity settings have been added to the options.

  • Fixed a bug that allowed cubes to merge and made some levels impossible when trying to push multiple cubes simultaneously.

As we discover new bugs and shortcomings in the game, we will continue to fix them. Have fun playing!
