System and Balance Changes
Gamepad Aiming Range Adjustment: The aiming range when using a gamepad has been changed.
New Feature - Item Dismantling: You can now dismantle an item by holding the interact button before acquiring it. Dismantling an item yields a random amount of Gold and Mana Shards.
Lightning Attribute Effect Revamp: The effect of Lightning attribute damage has been changed as follows:
Before: Decreased accuracy of the hit enemy.
After: If there are other enemies around the target, lightning chains to deal fixed damage.
Boss Fight Balance Adjustments: The difficulty of some boss fights and the attack patterns of boss monsters have been changed.
Mid-Game Quit Penalty Mitigation: If you select 'Return to Town' or 'Quit Game' during a run, your progress will still be reset as before, but any acquired Mana Shards will no longer disappear and will be automatically converted into Mana Coins.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where some menus would intermittently become disabled if you quit the game while trying to replay the tutorial.
Fixed a bug where the boss would leave the battlefield if the distance between the player and the boss became too great during a boss fight.
Fixed a bug that allowed weapon swapping on the pause and dialogue screens.
