This new version fixes a lot of graphical bugs, which should make the game a bit more playable on older macs. It also adds a new benchmarking mode, that you can enable by holding Option when launching the game. Minor gameplay fixes are also included.
Surprisingly for me, one of the hardest things to implement was the launch options dialog. The Macintosh Toolbox API is incredibly hard to navigate if you are not used to it. If there is enough interest, I will write a blog post describing how to make a dialog window for classic Mac OS. There aren't a lot of tutorials out there on the subject, most tutorials only scratch the surface of how to do basic event handling in a window.
Have fun!
