WORDS FROM THE AUTHOR

Straightforward update to this patch. The Patcher imager hadn't worked
reliably for some time as that tool is legacy, so I've updated to a modern
RawDIC installer. The patch itself is reworked for modern WHDL and I've
fixed some minor issues.

I've also added full CD32 control so you no longer need to use the keyboard!

Enjoy! :-)

The game isn't that good by nowadays standards but I like these 3D-
isometrical action adventures.
