This update contains the new "Hrukk Gardens" stage, a new boss battle, and many changes and bug fixes. As always, thank you to everyone for the feedback and bug reports. There will be some additional hotfixes and some more QOL updates in the next couple of weeks. Some of the content for Act Two will also hopefully start to show up in the coming updates as well. I'm leaning towards focusing on one of the new playable characters that become available in Act Two, but I haven't decided on which one to do first. I may reach out to the community to help me decide.
