ABOUT:
------
I wanted to do a New Year-themed hack since January 2020, and there aren't a lot of hacks with this theme. Work on it started in early December 2020 and was finished on the.

HISTORY:
--------
04/12/2020: Work on the hack started.
30/12/2020: N450 tests the beta.
31/12/2020: Version 1.0 is released.
01/01/2021: Update 1.1 is released.

BUGS:
-----
The HDMA gradient flickers when you press a buttn in the title screen and when you enter The End.
One of the chains in a Ball 'n Chain (specifically the one on screen 18) disappears for a split second.

CHANGE LOG:
-----------
V1.1 (01/01/2021):
* Added 2021 to the title screen (the year now says 2020-2021) because this is a 2021 release.
* Changes to Firework Lake: Redesigned the area where you can find a vine block, that block was changed to a multi-coin block, fixed cheese, added a few more coins and disabled vertical scroll. This is due to the level using a layer 3 tide.
* Added "And of course, you can kill them with a stomp too." to the second message in Pogo Forest. This is because N450 thought you couldn't kill them by stomping on them.
* Fixed item memory in sublevels. This primarily affected the Pogo Forest bonus area (sulevel 2D in LM) where only one coin was there, the missing coins were necessary to be able to hit the turn blocks after hitting the P-Switch.

V1.0 (31/12/2020):
* Initial release.
