First update to "Rotor'scope: The Secret of the Endless Energy" is about to hit Xbox Live Marketplace. This patch includes several enhancements, including:

• - Shorter loading times: players with 120Gb HDD were experiencing terrible loading times with the previous version. The issue has been addressed and fixed, now the game will load much more faster if you have one those hard drives, making the Rotor'scope experience even more enjoyable.


• - Fixed a bug that was causing the game to hang when exiting from the main menu.


• - New impressive box art, by Alexander Guillen, the same author of the incredible digital paintings featured in the game.


• - Fixed a few problems dealing with puzzles received from other players. Now you can safely remove received puzles from the user puzzle tab, in the Puzzle Workshop.

These new features are currently been peer-reviewed by other Xbox Live Indie Games creators. They will soon be available (in a couple of days) for everyone. If you have already donwloaded the game, it'll be automatically updated with this new version the next time you play.

Enjoy!
