Change list:

• Results screen continue button not playing sound
  
• Rank sparkle effect in wrong position
  
• Special stage dragon boss became shorter when the game ran at higher than 60fps
  
• Changed inputs to (hopefully) work with any controller (experimental, I don't have two controllers to test this...)
  
• Added must requested ability to return to title screen from map screen by pressing back/cancel
  
• Add vibration when boosting
  
• Added Mirage boss music to alternative soundtrack
  
• Fixed MacOS build

Fixes the following issues:

• Mirage boss train tracks stayed scrolling when game was paused
  
• Mirage enemy total was incorrect on results screen (67 instead of 71)
  
• Only English language was used in SS Devastator dialogue regardless of what language was selected (Mirage translations coming soon!)

New additions:

• You can now pass "--invincible" as a launch option to enable invincibility. This can also be enabled via the in-game debug menu which is accessible from the title screen by pressing F5

Hello all,

The time has come again for a new Ex-Zodiac level. Never wanting to let things get stale, Ben (MNKY) has cooked us up something quite different this time around - a wild-west ground-vehicle-based stage named MIRAGE complete with arches, canyons, nuke-hauling trains, robot horses and cowboys! Because he can, that's why... check it out:

Please leave a review for the game as well if you have not, it makes a big difference!

Mac Users: this level is not available for OSX just yet, we need a little more time with it. We'll post another small update when it's ready.

Hello all,

The next major level update is right around the corner, and here's a peek:

Similar to the other vehicle-based level earlier in the game, but with a little more freedom, and a theme that you may not have expected :)

We expect this level to go into beta testing in the next week or so, and release in later April. Be on the look out!

This update brings the following fixes and changes:

• Updated Caldera boss fight to use the new music tracks
  
• Spanish translations added for SS Devastator and Caldera levels
  
• Fixed Kyuu's pony tail glitching in most of the cyberspace special stages
  
• Fixed the Game Over screen being completely black
  
• Fixed some of SS Devastator sound effects being too loud (may still need some tweaking, so let me know)
  
• Fixed water splashes continuing on OASI-5 even after player's ship has already exploded
  
• Fixed OASI-5 boss having too much health (again, may still need some tweaking)
  
• Fixed lock-on amount for the flying lava fish enemies in Caldera to match their total health, also reduced their HP from 3 to 2 (let me know if this makes it too easy)

More updates coming in the near future

Small bug fix update:

• Fixed fog effect being too strong on Euclide Belt level
  
• Fixed some of the Russian translation strings being too long for the dialogue boxes
  
• Removed millisecond counter from boss timers and the Impactor stage timer as it was causing screen burn-in on Steam decks due to fast flickering
  
• Fixed alignment of some HUD items when language was switched
  
• Renamed "Hold fire to lock-on" to "Autofire" as it makes more sense, and it was just doing the inverse of that anyway

Just a quick fix as the rankings were completely off for the new level Caldera. This has now been fixed!

I'll be making some more minor updates soon, including things like the getting rid of the milliseconds on the boss counters to avoid Steam deck screen burn-in. Oh, and updating the translations for the other languages too, those are a bit behind at the moment!

Cheers!
