FIXES & BALANCES:
Dragging the topic-key doesn't get stuck when dragging anymore.
Shorten transitioning times such as the save files so people don't think there's nothing there upon checking it out.
Switching through the credits doesn't delete the arrows where they are supposed to show up.
The "max time is 15 secs" penalty makes it so that the timer cannot exceed 15.
Fixed Isaac Newton's name for Patrick's puzzle.
Cutscenes and the intro have been replaced with video files to save up on game space.
Background animations, specifically glitches, now have less animation frames.
Duplicate/unused sprites have been deleted.
Fixed the trash can reverting back to its normal state once mouse has lifted off its glitch state.
Mr. Pompy won't break the game anymore. We think.
Once again, we'd like to thank everyone for enjoying Pompy and leaving your reviews! We will be taking a long break from Pompy-related stuff to recharge for when we make the full game. We will also be updating this game with bug fixes if any is found and possible language options.
Much love to anyone who checks out the update. Have fun, Players :-)
Sincerely, Light Thoughts.
