1.0.1 - Quick Patch!

Hey guys! We're so appreciative with how this game has been received! The feedback has been awesome and we want to make the game even better for all of you to enjoy. Patch Notes:

ADDITIONS

Added some piping on The Grid near the Pulse Blast powerup for pathing clarity.
The Enemy Difficulty Level perk now also increases your progression speed throughout the level by 0.4% for each perk level (up to 4% faster at enemy difficulty perk level 10).
---> This should make the time it takes to reach the beginning boss about 30% faster.

ADJUSTMENTS

Reduced the progress reduction speed after killing a boss from 20% -> 10% resulting in slightly shorter runs between bosses.
Increased the Player's speed in the Interior Ship level from 4 -> 5.5.

FIXES

Fixed a bug that caused the game to unpause if you alt-tabbed while having the game be paused.
Fixed some text spacing between Challenge information.
Fixed an issue that caused challenge progress to always show as 0.
Fixed an alignment issue between some of the piping on the grid.
Fixed a bug that allowed Nina to shoot you with her laser even if her ship is destroyed and flying off screen.
Fixed a bug that stopped Tetraknight Gren's vine attack from having a warning after being used the first time.
Fixed a bug that stopped The Tetraknight boss' vine attack from having a warning after being used the first time.
Fixed a bug where the laser recharge meter would get stuck and unusable after you pick up another laser powerup while firing your laser.
Fixed a bug where bullets in Arcade Mode would not move forward.
Fixed a bug where you would receive 25 XP in Boss Rush mode even if you didn't kill a boss.
Fixed a bug where explosions were stacking on top of each other and causing a very loud noise.

Thanks for the support during Release week and here's to more awesome content being delivered in the future!

Chronicle: Unit Eight is an arcade bullethell roguelike with a sliver of RPG thrown into the mix. Mixing the combat and game feel of vertical shooter games like "Raiden" and "Ikaruga" with the roguelite progression style of "Rogue Legacy". Chronicle gives that old school space shooting genre a new flavor of life. Dodge, fire bullets, and increase in strength by finding powerups or modifications on each fun. Collect Scraps that fall off of enemy ships to use to upgrade your ship for future runs. Discover many secrets and defeat the space pirate boss that you were originally hired to destroy.

Chronicle is a mercenary-for-hire organization. They have dispatched one mercenary, (codenamed Atlas,) and her ship, Unit Eight to sabotage and destroy a secret weapon that a space pirate group has created to destroy planets.

Discover new weapon combos, defensive maneuvers, abilities, bombs, and unlocks to help manifest the perfect run.

After every run, explore the vast perk tree and upgrade your ship through modifications, weapons, weapon unlocks, defensive maneuvers and more!

Can you defeat the space pirate organization and destroy the secret weapon before all the planets that we know are eliminated for good?
