I got an e-mail about that very same thing. I didn't realize it would be 
so annoying...

Hmm, I tested it, and I don't get the same problem.

Yeah, it is kinda boring. I programmed it just to learn a few things and 
keep my programming skills up. What I really want to make is another 
'Metroidvania' type game. I still need to learn some things before I 
can, though.

How so? Boards with different shapes?

The difficulty does rise rather steeply. As I said previously, if enough 
people like it, I'll improve on it. For now, I'll let it sit and collect 
dust.
