- Fixed a problem that sometimes prevented Yokai from attacking during online play.

- Fixed an issue where the event music would remain playing for a while if the event ended immediately after joining online play.

- Spelling mistakes corrected.


# Please note that we will not be able to match players with different versions of the game.

Modifications:
1. Fixed the issue where continuous collection in place would cause the UI to freeze, resulting in the Esc interface being unable to open.

• (perk) Briefcase: it's super confusing how it works, and there's no way I can properly fit an explanation in its description, so I'm changing it into something that I think could be cool maybe: Briefcase is now "Knockback +100%, Range -50%". (this change was actually in 5.0.3 but I didn't mention it in patch notes because I forgot to update the in-game description 😅)

• Various bugs relating to microbe eliminations attained while at sub-60 FPS have been fixed (more Biomass per elimination, eliminations counting as multiple eliminations, Targets for eliminating microbes incrementing faster than they should, etc.).
  
• The Abyss would enter the visible area much faster than intended when below 60 FPS.
  
• The Abyss' Health drain is now consistent across all framerates.
  
• Multiple DEFEAT screens would appear if you died while at sub-60 FPS.
  
• Some turrets like Chronos and Tower would exhibit twitchy behaviour.
  
• Projectile Damage is now increased to compensate for when Firerate exceeds framerate (you probably didn't even notice, but if your framerate was, say, 30, and you were using AACC Hyperbeam, which has 60/s Firerate, you would have only been doing half the DPS!)
  
• "DANGER ALERT" text would sometimes overlap with the Bonus Research popup when you're able to pursue The Abyss.
  
• Various fade effects & spooky purple text popups will fade at the correct rate while below 60 FPS.

- Fixed a minor bug where some sections of the story would end and return to the main menu when accessed from the chapters submenu.

Fixed multiple security vulnerablities to address the recent wave of hackers causing issues. Sorry for the issues. Security should be vastly improved and should prevent further issues from occurring.

Version: 0.7.24

Hey all!

Popcorn! is currently fully supported on the Steam Deck, utilizing the default settings.

The touch screen is seemingly the best way to play, but you can use the touch pad cursor along with the trigger buttons to click.

Thanks!
