You got me wondering, so I restarted a few times just now, and brought my refresh rate down to 60hz, and the controls are still too fast and slippery for my tastes.
just re-open the game. The numbers at the top are your stats. You have the heart, the dumbell, and the hand as stats. And I don't know where gamemaker saves .sav files :/ if you reinstall the game they should still be their just extract to the same location. :)
