Which link are you missing exactly?

3.1.1 will be a bugfix release for 3.1.0; but your idea of adding a ".creating" sound is worth implementing. (I think it's already on the TODO list.)

Maybe it will find it's way into 3.1.2 or 3.1.3... We'll see. :-)

It's used to calculate the delay for a new amoeba tile, as follows:

MovDelay[ax][ay] = RND(FRAMES_PER_SECOND * 25 / (1 + level.amoeba_speed));

It is on my TODO list.

Other than the general roadmap, I better don't promise version numbers for certain features. ;-)

Well, here's the roadmap (including the previous and current version): - 3.0.0: custom artwork and custom elements - 3.1.0: fix most known bugs of the R'n'D engine - 3.1.1: fix those bugs that are still left in 3.1.0 - 3.2....
