Revisional Differences

Two revisions of the game are known to exist.

• The interfaces between both versions are completely different.
• In the old revision, 24 blocks were required to be lifted in order to clear the game. In the new revision, however, all blocks were required to be lifted.

Old	New

• In the original release, there were three different tilesets to choose from; the buttons to select them were located at the top of the playfield. In the newer revision, these buttons were moved offscreen, making them normally inaccessible.
• The high-score viewing function was removed in the newer revision. Despite this, a button for it can still be found offscreen, to the right of the playfield. Clicking it redirects the player to the win screen.

Old	New

• The original release has a credits section, which was removed in the newer revision.
