After a month of work I'm happy to bring you the biggest update yet! Six new enemies, two more levels, a new boss, and loads more features, tweaks, and bug fixes! Hope you enjoy all the new content.
On a more technical note, steam integration has been temporarily disabled, as it seemed to be causing problems with Windows 10. I'll be working hard to try to fix this so we can have high-scores and achievements again, and hope everyone understands. As always, full changelog below
