Kinda big fix

Thanks to anyone who noticed this game disappear. BLIP! It's back now. 

After some playtesting by non-gamer strangers over the weekend, I decided to simplify the game a little bit. Previously, you could only see text by taking the following sequence of actions: 

  1. Hit opponent with food
  2. Walk to the impact site
  3. Pick up ice cream
  4. Notice that the Eat button was enabled (the most difficult thing of all)
  5. Press Eat button

Nobody would ever do all of the above intuitively, so nobody ever saw any poetry, which defeated the purpose. I changed it to what it should've been all along -- now in order to see text, you have to do the following: 

  1. Hit opponent with food

That's it. The walls display text for one second in-game, which is usually captured/frozen by turn order. The screenshot button now appears with all the others, and is enabled when there's text. 

Good stuff all around, if I do say so myself! Much more appropriate to the purpose, and much more fun. Please play in your browser, or download the new version!
