Game speed is adjustable ranging from 0 to 9:
  0 - 5 fps,
  1 - 5.5 fps - very close to the original,
  2 - 6 fps,
  3 - 7 fps,
  4 - 8 fps,
  5 - 10 fps,
  6 - 12.5 fps (default),
  7 - 16.7 fps,
  8 - up to 25 fps,
  9 - up to 50+ fps, no delays and no vsync, about 6.5 times faster than original on average.
Speeds 8 and 9 are unplayable, I use them for benchmarking.

Game balance changes:
-Ninja's kicks and throwables deal more damage:
  Throwables and kick make 2 damage points, flying kick - 2-3
-Remaining HPs are now properly stored for each enemy. Also enemy 'health' now slowly regenerates.
-Reduced bat damage by 1 damage point
-Ninja takes less damage when falling from a small height:
  no damage if height is less than 15 tiles, half damage if less than 2 floors (36 tiles)
-Android sits longer after shooting the ninja
-Now you can run over enemies with a motorcycle
