The full list of changes are as follows:

VERY EASY mode added and difficulties re-balanced (Normal mode is UNTOUCHED)
When a boss hits 0 HP, all bullets are turned into score items
End text after the clearing the game adjusted depending on difficulty
Cheat list has been added to cheats menu that shows you the list of cheats for convenient access (Must beat the game at least once)
Cheats can now be toggled using the gamepad by button combinations
Brief descriptions added to video/game options
New font added for better readability
And MANY other small fixes...

Here are some images to show off the new font and cheats menu!

FINALLY, I wanted to mention that I had the opportunity to try Blazend on the Steam Deck and I am happy to say that it works without any issues (so far)! While we do not yet have a "Deck Verified" status from Steam, the game gracefully supports the Steam Deck's resolution, and all of the Deck's built-in gamepad inputs as far as I have tested.

That's all for now everyone! Thank you for tuning again for this update, and until next time folks!
