- The Milestone 2 branch has been created. This branch will be used to clean up features and badguys that have been committed to SVN but which are not part of the Milestone 2 Design Document. The goal is to overcome our current paralysis due to feature creep and, eventually, to create a new release.

- Mission to Snowdriftland is a very SuperTux'ish Flash Jump'n Run used for advertisement by Nintendo, it features 24 levels and great level and secret area design, everybody should have a deep look at this game to get some inspiration for Milestone2

- New, more compact, format to define multiple tiles in one image is available. width/height are the size of the image in tile units, 'ids' are the ids you want to assign to each 32x32 region of the image (left to right, top to bottom), 'attributes' the attributes you want to assign (solid, lava, water) in integer format, image is the image you want to use. This syntax doesn't support animation or 'data', that however shouldn't be a problem for most multi-tile images.
(tiles (width 2)
(height 2)
(ids 137 138
139 140)
(attributes 0 0 0 0)
(image "foo.png"))
