well done! (tho is *hard* for a bad player like me!)

Yes, it's a deliberate choice, in homage to many, many old games. I'd like to keep the game as I imagined it... but I understand that not everyone will appreciate this choice... ヾ(_ _*) On the other hand, the better you get at the game, the longer the game sessions become, and the menu times are also nice, hihi!
