First... can this be called a patch?

Something Behind the Door (Prototype edition)
A downloadable game for Windows

Heyo!

So, I messed up. I uploaded the game and I thought I balanced everything correctly- and then I got to the boss fight and realized something awful: 

I wanted the boss of the first area to be challenging, so I raised it's attack in the second phase. The average hp of a level 5 character was lower than the amount of damage the boss inflicted, so it made the encounter nigh unbeatable. ;-;
Therefore, I decided to lower it's attack from 30, to around 28.

Now someone may be asking "Hey, isn't that a really low number? It surely couldn't have been that bad!" I am trying to keep the numbers low, as I find working with low numbers easier.  But that also makes it so that I need to be somewhat precise with the numbers instead of roughly estimating everything. I am keeping the old build up just in case anyone for some reason wants to witness the monstrosity I accidentally made.

I also changed around a line or two of dialogue. English is not my first language, and I am trying to relearn my first one, so currently im stuck in a limbo of understanding everything and nothing at the same time, and that reflected in my writing, unfortunately.
