MINORGame has been renamed to "Mutant Gate".
I'm working on an RPG which takes place after the events of this game, which involves some retconning of Monsterland's setting in order to fit it, and I've been unhappy with Monsterland's very generic
MINOROptional intro level is back
Also, minor narrative changes in prison and last level. Now forces SDL into D3D mode just in case SDL would misbehave on Steam Deck.

MINORMinor story retcon...
... in case I reuse this universe in my new game. Basically location of protagonist's daughter moved back to Sarang-2 instead of Earth.
MINORBugfix in final boss map
On final boss map, the "exit portal" may become inactive, so the player can't go to epilogue maps. The issue could be remedied by saving and loading the savegame. Now the issue has been fixed in code.
MINORFull support for Steam Deck controls
