Updates and Stuff

-(2/3/24) I have returned to coding Mazungeon 1.5. Redoing the first was too daunting a task so I’m remaking it with a better look and smoother controls.
-While patching my first game Mazungeon, I broke it so it’s off the Play store. You can see on the site what it was like when it worked. You can also play a previous version here.

-Thank you to all developers and PR people who make this wild ride possible. It is a pleasure!
