Welcome back for more patch notes!This release brings a highly-requested feature.

The setting is off by default to retain the suspense of the results screen when you don't quite know whether you hit everything, but you can freely turn it on and off once you've unlocked it.Also, the game is now available in Spanish (Spain)!
