Hello Jmath, version v0.8 is out!
I fixed the bug shown in your screenshot. Now the game should display the correct character when burning a nitro in ASCII-mode.
I also implemented different kinds of forests in some stages. Forest-levels are generated with a different layout to make them feel more organic. So you should notice that you are in a forest, even if you are playing in ASCII-mode. I also added new music to these stages featuring strings.
