A quick update that fixes a few things. As always, please do let me know if anything is worse! v1.051 - FIXED?: bolstered further fringe cases of 'jumping near the ground counts as a jump' - FIXED: game should no longer generate Doors that go nowhere. - FIXED: it's no longer possible for TurrentDrones to shoot you through a wall if they're *right next* to it - FIXED: if electrified TeslaBots stepping on hacked mines *did* ever kill you, which looking at the code I'm not sure could ever have been the case, they now definitely won't. - TWEAK: it's no longer possible to set off the alarms by attempting to steal the Devil's Basilisk before security is shut down, since that evidently confused one too many people. - TWEAK: Basilisk Security is slightly more forgiving. - TWEAK: removed 1.04's inability to open doors near computers, since that annoyed more people than were pleased by it If you want to use the Beta version, if you right click the game in your Library, go to Properties and the Betas tab, and select betaTesting from the drop-down menu. Download the update, game should appear in your Library as The Swindle [betatesting]

The Swindle is a steampunk cybercrime caper about breaking into buildings, hacking their systems, stealing all their cash, and quickly running away again before the police show up.
All the buildings you’ll be robbing are randomly-generated, so you’ll never get the same level twice.
Meanwhile, from the safety of your rickety airship up in Outer Space, you can modify your thief with new skills, tools, and all manner of advanced technological horrors, allowing you to take on bigger buildings with better security, for gargantuan rewards!
Have you got what it takes to pull off The Swindle?
