7. History
----------

What's new in version 2.0?
--------------------------
Technically speaking, there were prior versions of Frozen Networks. However, there are so many major changes in the graphics, the splash screen, sound effects, objects on the playing field, user interface and the level editor (to name just a few things), that it's not worth mentioning them all. Rather then attempt to do so, simply consider this to be a new game (in fact, levels from older versions of the game will not even work with version 2.0).
