Just put out a new build to the main branch. As I had originally intended (but didn't have time to code previously), a lot of the Arcade perks, upgrades, and powerups are now unlockable. This means you need to perform a certain number of special KOs or take out specialty bots to earn them.
For those of you who have already been playing Arcade mode a lot, that means some of your favorite powerups now need to be unlocked. It'll feel like a slight step back, but I promise the unlocking process is designed to make Arcade mode feel more rewarding and won't be boring / grindy.
Full release notes:
- Many powerups and upgrades in Arcade mode are unlockable by performing special moves or skill shots or KO'ing special bots / bosses

- Game pauses when showing menu in Solo PvE modes
- Improved performance by modifying player static flag
- Specialty bot waves in Arcade mode can appear more often
