Here's a list of changes:
New Stuff
- Resetter object that can be used to reset physical objects and more (yes, we needed it to fix a few of your issues :) )

Performance Fixes
- Faster startup
- Customization startup time improved (there may still be a slight lag but should < 0.3 seconds)

Gameplay Fixes
- Cassette, graffiti and powerup counting should now be stored correctly (No more double tape collection / achievement cheating etc.)
