MAJOR UPDATE:

* added 1 player support vs COMPUTER! (simply type CZAR for 2nd player name)

* fixed severe game mechanic problem which prioritized the lower number animal during race collisions (e.g. an armed TIGER, because it is year 3, would always kill an armed DRAGON/SNAKE/HORSE/COCK). Now, when both animals are armed with rockets and they collide, neither animal dies

MINOR UPDATE:

* you may now use ENTER-key, SPACE BAR, or R-key to advance thru round screens

* sped up how quickly the animals for next round are revealed

* fixed bug which allows player to place rockets or stone outside game window

* reduced number of rockets that occurs when player wins (fanfare), in order to reduce lag -- but this algorithm is still based on winner's number of stones

* increased collision size of OX and COCK. this makes ox slightly worse, as he is prone to attacks, and cock slightly better, as he is an attacker

* fixed lingering shadows bug in game cards

* added effect when you hover rocket over game card

* cleaned up the rocket sprites (graphics) used during betting rounds

* reduced overall number of sound effects to speed up game

* lowered the volume on some sounds

* stopped all animal race sounds when first animal crosses finish line

COMING SOON:

* fix the bug which causes game window to minimize during player name & bet input screens. this bug is nefarious and annoying, and it will be fixed, I promise!

* high score table

COMING EVENTUALLY:

* ability to throw rockets during betting screen

* between round mini-game?
