Biology Battle v1.7 was released at 21:00 (GMT+7) on Dec 28th.

The new version includes a few fixes with the “Live Free” and “Die Hard” Trophies, and also a few extremely minor bugs with the AI, and a new intro cartoon!

All you need to do is download the new version from the Xbox Live Marketplace.  Your Topscores and Trophies will remain intact!

Here is a bit of a change list:

• Added “Hide Texts” option (remove the various text in the game that might clutter the screen for uber players)
• Added rank in the score descriptions (so each score entry you see what your appropriate global rank is)
• Fixed DieHard and LiveFree achievements (see above details)
• Added Cartoon intro
• Rearranged “Play” menu
• Fixed minor AI related crash (too many of red growing minibosses caused game to crash)
