Title Screen Build Number: 39810 / PS4: 1.06 / Xbox One: 1.0.0.8
General
- Fixed a few more issues where you could outrun the world loading and end up in walls or fall into the abyss (Ashwat, etc.)
- Battle bugfixes:
- Characters and enemies spread out from walls again, inadvertently removed after the last Backer Preview.
- Sprites remember their last grounded position if they fall into a pit, and try to drop down from high platforms if they're way higher than their target.
- Inputting a super on the exact frame a normal attack begins no longer just wastes iddhi without actually doing a super.
- In addition to pressing both buttons simultaneously, Ajna's heal super now has an alternate input of "Hold Meter Burn and press All Guard", the same way all other supers can be input as "Hold Meter Burn and press an attack button." Hopefully this helps!
- The in-game timer now ignores all loading times!
- Tweaked various colors throughout the game to look better. Ren is now EVEN MORE FABULOUS.
- Fixed clipped sprite shadows.
- Fixed a bug in the sprite culling routine; prevents multi-part sprites from randomly flickering. Oops.
- The Contributor Credits are now accessible from the title screen! Previously you could only view them from the pause menu. Thank you, person on Twitter, for indirectly pointing this out. <3
- Game-wide environment polish.
- Fixed another possible bug if Ajna is held at the edge of a diagonal wind region.
- Even more credits fixes! The fun never ends!
Console Only
- PS4 in-game timer no longer counts time spent in rest mode.

- If Ajna is alone in battle, she's always in the "first" position. Fixes various bugs.
- Dhar dhoesn't take dhamage, or grunt, if you enter battle with the first Hungry Ghost without attacking it.
- Removed the ability to remove Dhar from the party before he has come out the first time, so he actually comes out at that point. :^)
