   Bullet  Change Log

1.2.0

* Fixed timer code, on new (faster) systems timer control was broken and in some computers game would run faster than designed.

1.1.6

* Changed first level.

* Fixed quite a bunch of typos, many thanks Leif.

+ New effect, little paddle explosion when a life is lost.

* Fixed a rare crash at level 9.

* Changed pause menu, press 'ESC' to go to main menu instead of 'q'.

* Fixed false positive virus (some antivirus wrongly identified version 1.1.5 as a virus!!)

1.1.5

* New levels arrangement, easier levels first. Demo version comes with new levels, 8 instead of 5.

+ Different paddles now have different bumpers. Lower bumpers are easier to ride but higher ones provide more control over the ball.

* Arcade mode level ordering now defaults to 'random' instead of 'original' so every time you play you get different levels.

* A few fixes to prevent rare crashes.

* Updated SDL graphics library (from 1.2.7 to 1.2.8).

* Installer now uses LZMA compression instead of ZIP, smaller download.

1.1.0

* Fully revamped pill apparence (also added option to enable old mode).

+ Added option to disable/minimize particle effects. Plays a little weird, also useful to improve performance in low-end computers.

+ Added option to disable the mouse swiveling effect.

* Changed music for a few levels (no new tunes).

* Improved ball/paddle collison.

* Revamped help screen.

* Revamped nag (buy now) screen too :)

* Fixed compatibility with limited XP accounts.

* Add little pop up at the end of last scene (4th) to clarify the number of included levels in the Beta version.

Beta 1.2.0

+ Arcade and Quest mode are now enabled. Adjust game parameters to your liking in 'Arcade Mode' (to enable levels for Arcade, first get the keys in 'Quest Mode').

+ New paddle function, use right mouse button to enable the gravitor and force the balls down, also handy to finish the lasts bricks (remaining energy at screen top left corner).

* Adjusted difficulty settings. 'Normal' is slightly more difficult, and 'Hard' is harder.

* Improved paddle/ball collision.

Changes from Beta 1.05 to Beta 1.1.0
