Difficulty Balancing
I made another difficulty balancing pass. Many levels should be more forgiving now. Let me know of anything seems off - too easy or too hard. Have fun!

Built-In Camera Director
There's now a built-in camera director that can be turned on in the options menu (new). The camera director automatically sweeps around the level and frames the player's avatar and drone in the middle of the action - as seen in the game trailer. It's especially handy for when you

Difficulty Balancing
A few levels were way too hard. A challenge is good, but you can't walk through a brick wall ;) Level 13 (Laser Box 3) is slightly easier. Level 20 (Obstacle Course 3) is slightly easier. Level 24 (Laser Wall Very Hard) is slightly easier.

Faster Performance & Better Antialiasing
Hey! Many parts of the game have been optimized and it should now run a lot smoother. There were some jaggies in the game caused by aliasing. This was especially noticable on the LED lights scattered across the walls. Overall, the graphics should be easier on the eyes now. Send a
