Hi all!

It's been a while.

[previewyoutube=NDogJ8n7mW0;full][/previewyoutube] The past six months have been challenging for us personally, which is why this update took longer than expected. However, things are now more stable, and we're back on track! We truly appreciate your patience and support during this time. While the delay was unavoidable, our commitment to delivering the best possible game remains stronger than ever. Thank you for sticking with us - were excited to keep pushing forward! With that said, we're excited to introduce a brand-new update, bringing a host of new content, improvements, and fixes. Lets dive into whats new in Beta 6!

New Level: 3-G

The final Gauntlet Level has arrived! 3-G is now available, offering the toughest and longest Gauntlet level yet. As always, you'll need to defeat every enemy in each section before time runs out - but this time, the challenge is even more intense! And just when you think you've conquered it all there's one final surprise waiting at the end. Do you have what it takes to survive?

New Achievement

For those who conquer every Gauntlet level, a brand-new achievement awaits! This reward is a testament to your skill, perseverance, and mastery of the game's toughest challenges. It's the perfect way to celebrate your hard-earned victory and make completing the Gauntlet even more satisfying for true completionists. Will you rise to the challenge and claim it?

Visual Overhauls

Several Sparklestone Shores levels have received a complete visual overhaul! With newly designed tiles and stunning parallax backgrounds, these level are more vibrant and charming than ever. And we're not done yet - more visual upgrades are coming to Sparklestone Shores in future updates, making the region even more polished and immersive!
In addition, we've also given 3-4 a visual overhaul! The updated tiles make the level look cleaner and more cohesive, creating a more enjoyable and less overwhelming experience.

Level Builder More Tiles & New Themes

The Level Builder's tile system has been completely rewritten, allowing us to expand the tile selection while ensuring full backward compatibility. This means you now have access to a wider variety of tiles for creating more intricate and visually diverse levels. Plus, this update lays the groundwork for adding even more in the future! For this update, we've introduced Cyan Grass, Sand, Green Stone, Beach Dirt Background, Sand Background, and Green Stone Background - all based on 2-1, bringing fresh new options to enhance your custom levels!
Additionally, two new themes have been introduced: "Beach", which perfectly complements the newly added tiles, and "Trippy", for those looking to add a more... alternative and surreal twist to their levels!

Ultrawide Support

We've officially added ultrawide support (up to 21:9) to ensure a smoother and more consistent experience for all players. Previously, the game wasnt optimized for ultrawide resolutions, which could lead to unintended exploits and visual glitches. With this update, players using ultrawide monitors can finally enjoy a properly supported experience!

What's Next?

Thats everything in Beta 6! We hope you will enjoy the update, whether you're taking on the new Gauntlet challenge, designing levels with brand-new tiles, or simply enjoying the visual upgrades! We've made significant progress on the World 3 boss, and our goal is to include it in the next major update alongside new story content! Additionally, as mentioned before, we're continuing our visual overhaul efforts, which may be released as smaller updates (e.g., Beta 6.1) rather than waiting for a major release. As always, we love hearing your feedback! Let us know what you think about the new content, and if you encounter any issues, don't hesitate to reach out. We're excited to keep making the game better with each update!
