• Fixed bug where game would no longer spawn letters after a power-up is used to create a big combo.*
• Improved random letter generation**
• Added UI notification on profile settings when you try to delete profile data without first checking the box
• Added UI notification on profile settings when you delete profile data to confirm deletion occurred
• Game now saves after deleting profile data so changes take effect immediately rather than on next save
• Fixed bug where Time Attack Mode: Most Words Created stat was not reset on data deletion

* The freezing issue occurred when a power-up would cause several tiles to shift and eventually create words and potentially make combos. The old code allowed 1.5 seconds after using a power-up to check for created words. So the issue occurred when there were many tiles on screen and several words created causing more movement and if movement and words were still being made after that 1.5 second grace period ended then it would cause a freeze. Now when a power-up is used the code waits for all tiles to stop moving before it continues. This new code, along with a safeguard I implemented, should keep the game from freezing at any point. ** I have added a letter history that tracks what letters were spawned recently to avoid getting repeat letters too close to one another. I've had a few instances lately were I would get the same letter 5 out of 7 spawns, this is not great and will no longer occur. Thank you to those of you who have let me know about any bugs you encountered, I hope that these bug fixes make the experience more enjoyable. Please continue to let me know about any issues (or any other suggestions you may have for the game), you can submit a ticket from the Bug Report button in the Settings menu or use the link here: https://forms.gle/6hDoLk5PmRuyz7e99 P.S. Congrats to Dlive for being the first player to beat my high-score, I'm coming for that top spot again! Mike Davis Jr.
