Level Changes

• Levels 70, 76, 80 and 88 have been redesigned.

Gameplay

• A level now completes only after every chain reaction has finished. The light block briefly touching the electric point during an endless electric loop no longer counts as a win.
• Pistons can no longer be clicked while a chain reaction is still running or while the level is still opening.
• Once the light block is lit, the board locks and clicking a piston shakes the light block instead. In Level Editor, use Undo, Replay or Pause to keep playing.
• Slime blocks and sticky piston faces touching the side of an extended electric piston's head now move together with the piston.
• Electric pistons now always activate in the same order: top to bottom, left to right.
• Electric pistons check that they are still powered right before moving, fixing wrong activations in complex circuits.
• Electric pistons now teleport through portals only while retracted. An electric piston that retracts on top of a portal teleports right after retracting. Previously an extended piston could teleport with its head ending up on top of another block.

Undo & Replay

• Clicking a piston that can't move anything no longer uses up an Undo step.
• Undo and Replay now stop any chain reaction in progress.
• Fixed the board freezing mid-chain when pressing Undo right after Replay.
• Replay now returns levels that start with a chain reaction to their correct starting state.
• Fixed blocks and pistons that were still animating ending up squashed or out of place after Undo or Replay.
• The Undo and Replay buttons no longer spin when they have nothing to do.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed quick piston clicks sometimes leaving invisible "phantom" blocks on the board.
• Fixed an extended electric piston leaving an invisible block behind when destroyed by dynamite.
• Fixed blocks getting inside an electric piston, either while it was extending or when pushed into its head from the side.
• Fixed a blocked electric piston acting as if its head were extended.
• Fixed a blocked electric piston repeating its "can't push" feedback several times in a single move.
• Fixed blocks pushed onto a portal by a sticky piston sometimes not teleporting.
• Fixed a teleport in progress carrying over into the next level when switching levels.
• Fixed blocks hit by several dynamite explosions at once sometimes exploding twice or not finishing their explosion.
• Fixed opening a level from the menu during the level complete animation skipping a level or loading it twice.
• Fixed fast mouse movement sometimes clicking the wrong tile, including when placing or erasing in Level Editor.
• The board edge now always flashes when a push is blocked by the edge.
• Fixed an achievement unlocking when clicking a sticky piston with nothing in front of it.
• General stability improvements.

Audio & Visuals

• Dynamite blocks exploding at different moments now each play their explosion sound; previously the later ones stayed silent.
• Fixed Undo or Replay sometimes cutting off unrelated sound effects.
• Fixed the background blur behind menus looking blocky or misaligned on some systems.
• Turned off HDR output to fix incorrect colors on some HDR monitors.
• The frame rate is now capped to your monitor's refresh rate instead of using VSync.
• Updated the Mindlabor logo.
