[/*]Raised the SFX volume of Bigger Bass\'s Lunge Chomp attack to bring it more in line with the boss\'s other attacks.

\n
Game/Saving
Settings now load when the game is booted instead of when loading a save file. This fixes an issue where a save file would need to be loaded to reflect changes to audio volume settings.
[/*]
Fishing
Fixed an issue where fish streaks 6-10 did not increase the rates of 5-star fish as intended. This should be a slight improvement to fish star ratings during these fish streaks.
[/*]
If the player has not registered the Megalodon Pup upon defeating The One That Got Away, its appearance weight is increased until it is registered.
[/*]
After defeating The One That Got Away, a new rerolling formula is used for catching fish that increases the odds of encountering higher star fish, especially from fish streaks 9 and greater.
[/*]
Accessibility
Fixed a typo with the word Accessibility.
