I want to try and release an up to date version each month when I post one of these updates so keep an eye out for that.
There's a changelog in the folder I'm linking that includes all the changes I made since that last version but I'll put it all at the end of this post for those who aren't bothered about updating. It might look like a lot but in reality it was a lot of small adjustments and fixes, with a couple of new items to mess around with. Nothing substantial yet. I'm also trying to work on some music but it's taking a while to get used to making music again honestly, it's been a while. Other than that I'm planning on getting some of the other character designs finalised so I can have some more players actually playable. I also want some more backgrounds especially for the stage cause the current one is fine for mood but it needs to be replaced.
One last thing for those who've played the game so far, does the title screen background work? Cause I've watched one friend play it and the title screen only has a blank background for them. So it might be that their computer is very ass or I've messed up something there. It should be a purple version of the stage background, I've shown it in a gif before. If it's fine then I won't worry about it for now at least.
