Retro Broke!

19th June 2017
If you've downloaded RetroRaider-3 at any point today, you might want to re-download the game.
Whilst stress testing my level generator, I accidentally left a few "quirks" in there, including a cheat mode, and a "feature" that locks the game up and doesn't let you play. Ooops..

I've decided that AL's next Bum should be a Pulpish one. "Something Borrowed.. Something New.." Track one is above, and is merely a test. I've still got a few more of SonicALly to finish off before I can officially move on to the next one! Views 58, Upvotes 1
