[size=30]... and 0.9.19 is here![/size][/center]
[b][size=16]Has life been giving you nothing but lemons?[/size][/b]

[b][size=16][color=aqua]Cool New Weapons[/color][/size][/b]
Don't wait for hell to freeze over, freeze it yourself with the all-new, amazing [color=aqua][b]Freezer[/b]![/color] Freeze your enemies, make ice-bridges over water or just create a slippery path of death! [size=10](*The dev team will not be held responsible for any injury and/or death you may sustain while walking on ice)[/size]

We've improved your existing arsenal, too! The 'size' of cleaver has been reduced, so now it's more likely to cut into hogs instead of imbedding itself infuriatingly into the ground. The Flying Saucer has also seen some interesting changes...
[b][size=16]Death comes from [s]above[/s] below![/size][/b]
It's time to take your [b]amphibious assault[/b] to the next level. While using the Flying Saucer, it's now possible to launch projectiles from underwater! Also, instead of just dropping bombs on your enemies you can aim them, too! Wow!
[b][size=16]Improved AI[/size][/b]
[list]
[*] Think you can hide in a hidey hog hole? The newly improved AI will use drill-rockets to dig you out!
[*] Don't worry, though, you can always sneak under the protection of your trusty steel girder, right? That's where you're wrong my friend!
[/list]
[b][size=16]New Gameplay Challenges[/size][/b]
[list]
[*] An frenetic, awesome new gameplay mode: [b]Frenzy[/b]! In this mode each turn lasts only one second. Can you handle it?
[*] An extra mission: [b]Nobody Laugh[/b].
[*][b]More Achievements[/b]: 'Prestigious Pilot' and 'Naughty Ninja' have been added to the old missions. Have fun trying to unlock them.
[*]A new weaponset, [b]One of Everything[/b].
[/list]
[b][size=16]New Maps[/size][/b]
[list]
[*]Fight on a variety of [b]new battlegrounds[/b]!
[*]New entries include Bones, Crystal, Grassy, Haunty, Oaks, Shrooms and Tentacles!

[b][size=16]Ropers Rejoice[/size][/b]

[*] If the behavior of rope in 0.9.18 made you want to tear your hair out, you'll be glad to know that it's much improved.
[/list]
