The Swedish translation has been updated by Jonatan Nyberg and a (rare) crash has been fixed thanks to Ricardo Garcia.
Also just to point out: On my PC (SDL 2.30.0) these games run VERY slow for a few months now although I did not change anything render related. This does not happen on my laptop with SDL 2.0.20 or other PCs with SDL3. So I assume it is either an SDL2 bug or a problem with my hardware drivers. If anyone has an idea what to do about it please let me know. Otherwise I just hope future updates of Ubuntu will fix this again.

I've replayed all puzzles and properly adjusted the time limits, so they are valid now. Also, I've added an option to disable the low time/move alert and fixed the color key for teleporters.

Metainfo for Flathub has been added and the desktop icon has been upscaled, both thanks to yakusha. I also fixed the icon installation location and a minor compiler warning.

Well, that was quick... I broke the last release by forgetting a file. It is included now. I also adjusted the icon installation location and made the configuration directory path configurable for those who prefer ~/.local/share.

It's been a while since this project got some attention but here we go: I've updated the configure stuff and fixed a lot of warnings. To increase replayability I've replaced the difficulty setting with a rating system (0-5 stars) so you can either go casual for just completion or the full 5 stars (equals the hardcore difficulty) which is more fun I think. I also reintroduced the time limit so you can choose move or time limit whatever you prefer. Time limits still need some tweaking tho. And to simplify things (and as it never really made sense) I removed the profiles. There simply is just one profile per user now stored in the local config directory.

I've further improved the "casual level" check for Random20.

Some minor changes: The Classic theme uses the proper warp icon geometry for full compatibility with retro themes. Instead of just a list index the theme name is saved in the config file to prevent unwanted switches on installing new themes. And the pseudo-set Random20 has been improved to discard "hard" levels (too many difficult bricks, too close to paddle, ...) to make it more casual and fun.

I always forgot to include the figures file for game mode Figures. So with this port it's finally there and Figures can be played in Windows, too.
