A new version of _Sketchy Maze_ is released today that brings some new
features and some new content.

Grab the latest version on the [Download](/download) page!
## New Levels
Two new levels are added in this release:
* Desert-1of2.level: a desert-themed level with platforming segments as you
climb the outside of a pyramid.
* Desert-2of2.level: inside the pyramid. This level is full of puzzles
involving the new Box doodad.
These join the previous three Tutorial levels that earlier versions came with.
## New Doodad
![Box](/guidebook/images/doodads/box.gif)
The **Box** can be pushed left or right by the player character or other
mobile doodads, and it is affected by gravity. It is taller than the
player character, so can make a useful platform to reach a higher ledge.
## Other Changes
* New brush pattern: Perlin Noise
* New default color for the Colored Pencil palette: Sandstone (solid) - uses
the Perlin Noise pattern.
* Scroll the editor window _slowly_ by holding the Shift key.
* The Doodads window is now opened by the `Q` key instead of `D` in the level
editor.
* The WASD keys can scroll the level editor in addition to the arrow keys.
* Levels and Doodad files get compressed for a filesize savings of ~84% on
average! Tutorial 2.level shrank from 2.2M to 414K.
