Many fixes and touchups! More enemy variety in areas. Changed Pols voice's colors to the red palette. Fixed text glitches. Fixed a wrong tile combo placement in the NE part of the world. Fixed all Q2 Dungeon bugs that "erpster2″ brought to my attention. Thanks again! Fixed Link's hair shrinking when he walks. Colored in the bubble enemies nose so it's not transparent.
