Repair Locator (for when you're busy dodging hellfire!)
Boss Healthbars (yay!)
Score differential (how close are you to beating your high score?)
5 Scores saved on cart - PERMANENTLY!
Restart Run in Menu (For when the run is forfeit.. :( )

Hey All!

In Release 1.7 I have immortalized winners from my recent caravan competition :) They will forever be in this game now!

Also I have fixed options movement in Level 20 and later, there was a bug causing options beyond 20 to be stuck to the middle of the screen ( they now move as they should along with the other dozens of options in virtual insanity... the way it should be )

I believe this will be the last update unless another bug is found. Thank you to SquidLight yet again for his guidance on tokenizing my code so I could fit in the caravan winners.

Time to take a short break from devving!

This is my take on an "endless" infinite game using crossgunr as a basis... and learning more about design and coding in the process... hit the token limit about a thousand times... thanks to lazy devs discord warriors for helping me through, you know who you are!
