This week was mostly a marketing week, but I did fix a few bugs. The marketing push has been going pretty well, been sending out lots of keys via Keymailer, and that has resulted in a couple of people streaming it on Twitch every day so far. Unfortunately so far those streams and views haven't translated into increased sales, but I'm having a lot of fun watching a bunch of new people play the game!

Changelog

• BUG FIX: Down The Chute's 2 star time was 90 seconds, changed to 19 seconds like it should have been.
• BUG FIX: Push It To The Limit goal zone no longer clips through the floor.
• BUG FIX: Allow people to select screen resolutions that are slightly higher than the resolutions reported by their screens.
• BUG FIX: Display resolution should no longer show 800x600 incorrectly sometimes. This was mostly an issue the first time the game was booted up.
• BUG FIX: several level entry points clipping into the ground.
• VISUALS: Minor lighting adjustments on some levels.

I thought "PogoChamp" was a pretty good pun, so I spent a few thousand hours making a game around it...
