  Planning to switch to an Ebiten 2.3.0 pre-release version next week
  if it proves stable.

  This is a major FPS boost on low-end Intel graphics.

• Engine: remove -pin_fonts_to_cache_harder - it no longer has any benefit.
• Engine: remove the known broken neighbor conflict check. It was already off.
• Engine: remove visible polygon dumping.

Release v1.1.112

Changes since v1.1.66:

• Game: fixed the logic that after 100% reveals secrets.
• Game: relaxed All Paths to only consider paths between visited CPs.
• Level: foreshadow the ending very close to the start :)
• Level: reworded the TnihSign near the "exit".
• Engine: added mouse input for menu and map.

Release v1.1.66

Changes since v1.1.31:

• Engine: add a feature to skip render frames, allowing to run at 30fps, 20fps
  and 15fps. Note that this may slow down possible runs as input is only
  polled once per frame.
• Game: make the ending sequence look MUCH better in EGA/VGA palettes.
• Game: add a "no teleport" speedrun category that is easier than "no escape".
• Packaging: include more data in source tarballs to allow building from
  those, not git.
• Snap: replace zenity by gxmessage. Makes the snap smaller and removes
  regular vulnerability notifications due to Zenity including a web browser.

Release v1.1.31

Changes since v1.1.6:

• Level: fix an exploit where one could still get into Butterfly Effect without being able to stand. Makes Kaizo less confusing.

Changes since v1.0.187:

• Level: fix a tiny render glitch in The Torus.
