You can move and adjust the actions on the timeline in order to overcome obstacles. New actions can be collected as items and added to the timeline.\r\n\r\nVersion 1.01:\r\n - Fixed a bug where the secret exit for Level 9 would always appear.\r\n - Fixed a bug that was causing actions on the timeline to act like they were being hovered over if they were adjacent to another action.\r\n - Fixed a bug where an action you pick up on the timeline sometimes wasn't being sent to the top of the z order.","title":"Timeline"}
