V0.1.1 Speed Break Update


Ok, this took a bit to make. This isn't a MAJOR update, but it's big enough to have taken a long time.

NOTE: Go to your local app data files (hold Window key and Press "R"), look for The Boy and his Story folder and delete the options save data file. 


System Change: Speed Break Mode
--------------------------------------------
This applies to every playable character. When you're consistently running at max speed for 4 seconds, you'll enter Speed Break Mode, to which your max speed changes to full speed, making you reach an even higher speed. 
While in Speed Break Mode, you'll see after-images and a lil' boost effect (if you have Particles on.) If your speed gets too low, you'll lose Speed Break Mode ONLY while on the ground and when you're not stomping or on the ground after stomping, meaning you can keep Speed Break Mode if you do a Slam-Dash. (A little sound will play letting you know when you lose Speed Break Mode.)
Also, if you press Space (RB/R1/R on Controller) when "GO" starts to appear in Speed Stages, you'll immediately enter Speed Break mode.
That's the major thing I wanted to add.


COMPLETELY re-wrote the wall-jump code. It's no longer doo-doo.  (You also don't need to hold left or right against a wall anymore. You stick to it automatically as long as you're against it.)

(Let's hope I don't forget anything I added or changed.)
