- 0.35b4: Added 'Pang (World)' (Mitchell 1989) and clone Buster Bros. (US). The old version, Pang (bootleg), contains opcodes and data decrypted separately, plus a few patches here and there. They disabled sound in attract mode (there isn't a setting to do that, unlike Buster Bros), changed the lives option from 1,2,3,4 to 1,3,4,6, and changed the copyright year from 1989 to 1990.
