A new bugfix release of Solarus, Solarus Quest Editor and of the Sample Quest was just published!A few annoying bugs were fixed.

Additionally, we added a lot of content to the official Sample Quest, including enemies, NPCs, musics and sounds (thanks Diarandor!). And there is also now an experimental clickable HUD (thanks Vlag!). The sample quest can now be playable without keyboard.
