This version comes with the much requested online leaderboard!
We wanted to have a global online leaderboard, not separate leaderboards for each platform, so with the help of Marc Max and Ferran (Rading Games) we took the same idea as Galacticon and decided to add a QR code, which when scanned, enters the score into Murtop's Online Leaderboard. This way, we don't have to mess with the servers of each platform and we can keep the game offline.
We hope that this approach suits everyone.
Here's how it works:

You must obtain a score higher than the lowest score in the in-game offline leaderboard.
Enter your initials.
A QR code will show. Scan it and your score will be enterd into Murtop's Online Leaderboard.
Changelog
Added

New option to enable/disable the QR code.
New bezel
Murti in the "Characters" screen.
Organized licenses in the "Credits" screen.
Fixed

When the last enemy killed the player with only 1 life left and then that enemy was immediately killed (by a bomb or a rock), in the next level the player continued without lives (no hearts were visible on the HUD).
Changed

Atract mode timer set to 10s.
Minor aesthetic changes to the "Kill Screen".
