Update 1.1

Everyone, thank you for your patience. It's finally here.

The beta for 1.1 was a long process, taking a lot longer than I anticipated. Some of the core of the game has been completely rewritten in the interest for the future and we've had to experiment a lot with new values for the new game mode. But where I would usually rush things a little bit, it seemed better to really try to nail this update and get it out properly. As I write this, the Linux update is being prepared as that requires some additional testing and adjustment.

As always, thank you and I hope you have a good time with this little game. If you're enjoying playing it, please consider dropping a friendly review!
