Issues fixed

Buggy mouse

Occasionally in puzzles you will need to "push" items with the mouse. Sometimes this can seem too fiddly or just plain buggy.
Change to 60% window size[citation needed]

Adobe AIR won't install (Linux)

Create symbolic links for Gnome keyring[citation needed]
  1. Open the Linux terminal
  2. Create symbolic links for gnome Keyring with these commands:
    1. sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
    2. sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0
  3. If you have a 32-bit computer use these commands instead:
    1. sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
    2. sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0
  4. Install Adobe AIR
  5. Remove the symbolic links with these commands:
    1. sudo rm /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
    2. sudo rm /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0
