I realize I should be fixing bugs, but I have a touch of a cold and couldn't manage to drag myself to the bug list this morning.

Instead, I decided to inject a little more awesomeness into the Alphabet Assault game. I started a second level of the dungeon (it needs at least three or four, but currently has only one) and added a new feature. There are certain weapons in the dungeon that if you're using it and you spell a word with a key letter, it'll give the weapon a temporary boost. For example, if you have the Axe of B and spell the word "grab", your axe will do massive electrical damage for the next 60 seconds. It's a fun additional feature, guaranteeing that this mini-game will likely be my favorite in the whole module.

I also worked on a timesaver for the sound files. I worked up a new technique that ditches copying and pasting into Excel to create lipsynch animation. Now I copy the wav files into one folder, run a batch file, and the compressed version and fxe file appears in another.
