v1.10
- By popular demand, added a detailed audio latency calibration screen with support for
automatic and manual calibration as well as in-game testing

- Allow pressing enter to exit the tutorial
v1.05
- NEW LEVEL! Level 5: "As the Cherry Blossom Falls"
- Added level number and song title on a dropdown sign at the beginning of each level
- Adjusted animation speed of conveyor belt to match tempo of song
- Fixed missing nipples for one of the people sprites (oops)
v1.04
- Adjusted hair positioning and make indicator line appear sooner,
to give more advance warning for the first slice
- More accurate audio sync, and smoother scrolling for the indicator line
- Added gamepad and mouse support
- Fixed a visual glitch when showing the loading screen before the doors fully finished opening
v1.03
- Added a victim to the intro of level 4 so it's not as long of a wait before the song starts

v1.01
- Added a pause screen - press Escape or P to pause during a stage
(you can exit the stage from this screen)

- Performance tweaks to avoid small hitches during gameplay,
especially on the first note of each session
- Fixed sfx failing to play if you slash too quickly
- Smarter placement of blood slashes (no more bleeding between people's legs)
- Don't allow slashing above a person's head or below their feet (no more bleeding floors)
