Hello, I'd normally like to wait before pushing an update with patch notes but I'm adding a hard mode early to get some feedback.
Go to the left room and interact with the little chili pepper to turn it on!
Let me know if it's too hard, not hard enough, or just not fun.

For controller support:
The game does support it, but I've gotten feedback from players saying it doesn't.
Does it not work with your controller, is the lack of button prompts too annoying to play without, or is it something else?

Let me know, and I'll address these problems in the next big update!

///NEW

///BALANCE
