    Hey Jim,

    I love to keep my toolset as simple as possible, and I still think there's plenty of mileage in that school of development. Frameworks are always generic by nature and never quite as...

    No you misunderstand me. It should be used as a gameplay mechanic, but having it as a power-up that you collect and use is just unimaginative. It would be better to treat it like a change in...

    Great work. I can't play it either but you let me have a go in the pub that time so I don't feel too left out.

    Couple of questions.

    Why aren't you charging for it?
