For this month's build 1.2 June update:
* 8 in-game tutorials added (a lot more to come).
* A louder notification beep for exercise changes added.
* Single Side Steps exercise added.
* Resting sprites re-animated.
* New splash screen added.
* 'Muscles used' diagram added to the tutorial format.
* Further improved the initial sprite loading smoothness.
The content in Boot Camp Fitness is already at the 32 bit game 2GB RAM loading limit. So, I will work on implementing an external loading system to load all songs from the playlist from an external folder - thereby freeing up valuable room to add a lot more content.
Once again, thank you everyone for all your suggestions for improvements to the game, which are slowly but surely being implemented. For next month's 1.3 July build I will concentrate on adding an external loading system and also more tutorials. I will not stop adding tutorials until there is a tutorial for every exercise.
Here is a screenshot of one of the tutorials (a tutorial button will appear for exercises with tutorials):
