I have changed the underlying mechanism to fix a bug that prevented BGM looping from working in some environments.
However, this may cause other BGM bugs. Our apologies.

Hi there!

-New feature:

Player Assistant:
When enabled, players can see possible actions in real-time.

-Fixed font issues on Chinese & Japanese languages
-Fixed minor bugs.

Updated Lobby UI font and Game UI font to match Main Menu UI font.

- Boss health bars now display the unique boss name instead of simply "BOSS"
- Stage 5's visuals and terrain mapping were improved
- Some balance changes and fixes that nobody really care about

Sorry for the small size of this update, but I do feel very satisfied with the game in its current state and would prefer to work on other projects (at the moment). Thank you for your continued interest.

• (perk) Antifreeze: Now functions differently: "can shoot while overheated, Firerate -20% every 1s while overheated (resets upon cooling)". While I'm sure this will dissappoint some, rest assured knowing that Antifreeze still has amazing potential with this new functionality.
  
• (turret) Diesel: Removed the "while above 0% Fuel" requirement that I recently added.
  
• (turret) Surge: Eeeh screw it, I'll let it have 3.75/s Recharge Rate (instead of 3.125/s).

• (mode) Gameshow: The "Reversed Knockback" Target's effects would never go away, eheheh…
  
• (mode) Gameshow: A non-moving, duplicate turret could appear when choosing an Endless Mutation.
  
• (mode) Gameshow: Targets would sometimes continuously slide/fade off to the side while on the DEFEAT screen.
  
• (mode) Gameshow: The cursor wouldn't change to a crosshair if you have Skip Shop enabled and the shop gets skipped after the TARGETS menu appears.
  
• (mode) Gameshow: Failing Score quota check with the Defibrillator perk equipped would just kinda softlock the game.
  
• (mode) Gameshow: "PASS!" could appear next to your Score before the first Score quota check if you had 0 Score by that wave.
  
• (mode) Classic: After entering Endless, locked items wouldn't actually get locked, and they'd get rerolled.
  
• (perk) Condenser: Will now fade in/out to signify when it's active.
  
• (perk) Turbine: Wasn't reducing Health when you hit 0% Heat, since last update I think.
  
• The popup "you have 0 Heat Max" and "you have 0 Health Max" wouldn't show until wave 2 (was supposed to show immediately).
  
• Hovering over slotted, inactive weapon mods would only show the stats of the first slotted weapon mod.
  
• Firing while overheated (possible via the Antifreeze perk) would increment your # of total overheats each time (which would skew values in RECORDS and mess with certain Targets).
  
• High Weapon Speed (like 500+) would cause many strange things to occur, such as faster Movespeed, Cooling Rate, animations, and other oddities.
  
• (turret) Saturn: Fixed some homing wonkiness.
