• move to SDL2 for graphics rendering
• glow effects
• new badguys: iceflame, ghostflame, livefire, goldbomb, smartblock
• new bonuses: coinrain, coinexplode
• statistics improved
• icy island levels tweaked
• new sounds
• massive improvements to localization
• efficiency tweaks
• menus reworked
• addon manager improved
• new tilemap: halloween
• new powerups: air- and earth-flower
• support for horizontal gradients in levels (add (direction "vertical|horizontal") to your level)

Have fun! And, as always, if you have questions, comments, praise etc, drop by at #supertux on freenode.

Thanks

Congratulations guys!

Personally, I think you guys should switch to making Tux actually pick up the hats he puts on, rather than add more different-colored flowers. Two different flowers is basically fine (especially when the colors so intuitively match what they are), but air=purple and light=green? This could be really confusing, especially if even more powerups get added.

Plus, there's colorblind and color-deficient people.

Congratulations!
I'm sorry I haven't been around at all lately with studies and all. (I guess I wasn't that much before either :s )
When I have time I will have to set things up again for my new computer.

Thank you! By the way: Can you add me to the admin list for SuperTux, ctdabomb? Because I'd really like to sticky this thread and the move to Github thread as well.

[Bertram]

Excellent!

I'll add you to this list. I have also stickied the requested threads.

Done, and i did a ton of other stuff to the website, also making it responsive.

Not in the same package.

Thanks for the head's up.

I have Fedora Linux v20. I downloaded Super Tux and there is no way to save my progress in the game. I'm not a developer, I just want to play the game.

What I have: Super Tux 2 Development Version. There's no Main Menu to save my progress.

The version is the only one available in the Fedora repositories.
