Reki here. Now that a lot of irritating things are finished, it is time to add and polish content. This update is pretty big, I'll try to summarize the important changes... The final area is accessible, there are some new monster hearts and revamped old ones, some new creatures in various areas, changing your color with scraps looks a lot nicer, and the one-button directional attack option now works with dual wield mode. Uhh, I think that's all the major stuff. The game's in a better state than it's ever been. For the future, a soundtrack is still coming, I'm planning on a feature to give proper objectives, and of course, just more of everything. Please enjoy the update.
