Release Notes for BioMenace Remastered

New features and additions

Added new winter themed tiles to the tileset and a matching new parallax background
Added a new bonus level using the winter theme
Level editor: Added tooltip to actor chooser showing information about hovered actor and a visual representation, to make it easier to find the desired actor
Added support for the Android version of the 8BitDo SN30 Pro controller
Added a gamecontrollerdb.txt file to allow more easily adding mappings for unrecognized controllers

Fixed kill streak persisting when restarting the level
Fixed issues with subway trains in E4L7 (appearing too frequently, only moving in one direction instead of both)
Fixed "Dialog not found or invalid" message that could pop up in episode 3 under specific circumstances

When starting the game while the monitor it was previously running on is no longer connected, the game window now appears on the primary monitor instead of off-screen
Fixed graphical corruption in secret level transition cutscene for 3rd secret level in episode 4
Minor tileset fixes (graphical touch ups to a few tiles, added missing foreground flags)

It's now possible to look up/down with a controller without using the analog stick, by holding B and then pressing up/down on the d-pad (or left analog). This is intended for controllers without analog sticks.
Added a new option "Skip dialogs". Mainly intended for speedruns, this completely skips any dialogs (hostages, bosses, hints etc.) and immediately grants items that are normally given after the dialog ends.
It's now possible to delete saved games from within the "load game" menu by pressing Backspace or the X button on a controller.
Added a few additional tiles (gray/red stone block variations) for use in custom levels
