Dwindling Worlds Post-Compo Version
May 5th, 2012 9:15 am
It took me a bit longer than I’d intended, but I’ve now uploaded a post-compo version of Dwindling Worlds. This version mainly smooths over the rough edges and adds some of the things suggested in the comments (thanks everyone who commented!

- Space will now repeat the current world’s hint.
- Tweaked the difficulty to make it easier.
- Smoothed the voiceover levels so it should be easier to make out what’s being said when the music’s playing.
- Better end sequence.
