The game introduction is getting some improvements, with better dialogs and a portrait for Sanaka:

There is also the new Tanuki enemy that has a nice walking animation improved by my friend Greg:

This enemy will have a few different versions, including one with projectiles. It should show in the first levels of the game.

Other things that I improved are:

• playing more than one sound effect at the same time
• loading a different palettes based on information in the tmx map
