This update focuses on adding workshop support for custom charts and custom EMS packs as well as some UI enhancements, gameplay performance improvements, and 14 unlockable EMS packs to try out (earned after completing a section in "Enter The Flow").
The new feature in this update is the addition of the EMS Creator v1, a simple editor to allow you to slightly customize the background effect system for your gameplay. Try to create something cool and upload it to your workshop! I've included all of the built-in unlockable EMS packs in the editor for those that want to experiment with resizing or combining multiple effects.
You can now chart songs using a YouTube URL. Open the Chart Editor, create a new project, select Import Audio, and then select the YouTube option. Please refer to the screenshots below for the order of button presses to setup a YouTube based project.
Charts configured with YouTube URLs are the only method allowed for workshop submissions. For players that chart songs with their local audio and want to share that chart with other players, you may export to .harmonic using the "Export .harmonic" option and then share that .harmonic export with another player for them to then import in to their game.
Added a "Community Charts" playlist in the Main Menu which will contain any charts that you've subscribed to in the Steam Workshop. Requires restarting the game after subscribing to an item.
Added a "Reset Defaults" button to the Options menu for a way to reset your settings back to the recommended default values.
Updated the layout of the "Shop/Loadout" menu to be a tabular menu for easier navigation.
In the main menu, the currently playing song now displays at the very bottom above the Copyright statement.
The last update to highlight as a more modern look to the in-game UI while still allowing for the previous in-game UI display via a toggle in the Options Menu under Graphics & Display. Set the option "In-game UI" to the value of "Modern in-game UI".
