I just can't find it.  :(  I even downloaded the game again and did a
fresh install and didn't see the hole.  That's "Cave 2: Custards" - the
cave where you drop plums on custards to blow your way into the boxes,
right?

No plans whatsoever to go commercial, or even shareware.  The most I'd
do is put a donation link up and maybe give anyone who donates a copy of
the simple and buggy level editor I used to make the included caves.
And that's only because I'm greedy and want a new Mac laptop... ;)

I've been considering releasing the source since I began, mainly because
of Linux users... it might be worth a laugh, too.  I'll continue
considering it.

It's hard to estimate how many hours I put into this game.... I'd say at
least 100 over the last few months.  I spent a lot of time on the
graphics and sounds, on little details.  For example, the cat and
enemies blink occasionally, and when objects that have been splattered
go through a milling wall and change into another type of object, the
new object is splattered in the same place.
