Lost Cartridge Jam 4 is now done, and Goblinoid finished as a close runner-up in the rankings. Thank you, judges, and everyone who played my game. It was a blast working on the game and taking part in the jam.

That being said, during the time period after the initial release and the judging phase, a few ugly bugs reared their heads, and now with judging done, these problems have been addressed in the new Version 1.1 release of Goblinoid.

Changes in v1.1:

• Re-balanced difficulty curve
• New, better, 3 page help section in-game
• Decorative tiles added to levels that were missing them
• Fixed a bug where dying while eating the last bloofing  in a level may lead to strange, sometimes game-breaking behavior.
• Fixed a potentially game-breaking bug where in some cases the game will freeze upon entering the Ice Caves area, or when winning the game.
• Rewrote the code for receiving new lives so that new lives are awarded at all iterations of 4500 points instead of just the first 5.

Overall, players are now more likely to be able to win the game.
