Hey everyone :) The new Penelope update is live, bringing the Bonus Missions to the game! - Bonus Missions added (based on scoring or time trials, will ask you to use ALL your weapons in the same level!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JaGB4tHnDk - Position indicator (POS 1/5 etc...): there are now a lot more of invisible triggers in the levels, which leads to a better position tracking. - Difficulty balance: > Arachne made slightly weaker > Minotaur world tagged as Medium > Mines race made (again) slightly easier > Poseidon's guardian made slightly easier > Final boss made slightly harder - Tons of tiny bugs fixed
Have fun, and thank you again for your feedback. A lot of stuff in this changelog directly comes from this :) Aurelien.

• Set in a futuristic Odyssey, "The Next Penelope" is a fast paced action racing game with loud colors, an original story and a challenging risk-reward system.
  
  
• If you've played a MicroMachines game, you'll feel right at home with the controls! (An alternative control scheme is available for newcomers as well.)
  
  
• Weapons can be mixed and used at any time, but all these abilities cost vital energy, so the player is very powerful and close to death at the same time!
  
  
• As Penelope is looking for Ulysses through the galaxy, the player is free to explore the planets in any order. Each world features unique situations, races, even bosses, and new permanent abilities to enhance Penelope's spaceship.
  
  
• First released as an early access, The Next Penelope has known 6 months of additional development with the help of the community, and has now new features such as local multiplayer (up to 4 friends on the same keyboard!), more solo content, new languages and options ...
