I am incredibly pleased to announce the second public release of Nebular Gauntlet along with an update of the map editor. It's been a couple months since the last release and there have been a multitude of fixes and features that have been added to the project. The month's of work have not, however, resulted in any increase of my artistic skill, so the look of the project is still quite below par and should definitely not be taken as a sign of code problems. Again, any feedback would be wonderful.

Thanks,
Steven Davidovitz
