Outpost in the Dragon's Maw had just received a bit of an update, introducing the following features:
Technologically it was a rather tricky update, the ROM space to have these fit had to be obtained somewhere. That came from coming up with a new background tileset compiler which allows for saving ~15% on the tileset. This is quite large due to how the tileset is realized (it is generated by code while racing the beam), which is a necessity to be able to do this amount of sprites on this hardware.
Finally it feels like a fairly complete game, have fun playing! :)
