Hey all! I've made this small patch to the game to fix some bugs that were found during the EVO 2026. Additionally, I've made some tweaks to Beverly and Jay to improve their movesets. Jay in particular got some new moves for Spirit ON.
Thanks to everyone who attended! I plan to keep posting updates somewhat regularly on both Steam and Itch.
