Update 1.6 - Practice difficulty

Difficulty Options

• The"Novice"difficulty was renamed to"Normal"so as not to discourage players from trying it out.

• Added a new difficulty called"Practice"for newer players. Practice is essentially the same as Normal but with higher damage, more HP, and infinite continues. It’s a way to experience the complete game if you’re new to the genre and can serve as a good warm-up before trying the classic difficulties.

  Practice mode does not have a scoreboard.

Training Mode Changes

• You now have infinite continues in Boss Training mode.

Balance

Some very slight adjustments have been made to all difficulty modes. Here are the most relevant ones:

• The chainsaws during Boss 2 are slightly slower in Normal mode.

• The bullets shot from the background in Stages 1 and 4 now explode into fewer bullets in all difficulty modes, making them more consistently dodgeable without a dash.

• Mine projectiles in Stage 4 now explode into 9 bullets instead of 10.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where projectiles from the Stage 2 boss had the wrong color when playing with the"Muted"shot style.

• Attempted to fix a bug where Cicadas in Stage 4 would sometimes continue shooting after death. I was unable to reproduce it, so I’m not certain whether the bug still occurs.

UI Changes

• The word"Level"was replaced by"Stage"in Stage Select for consistency.

• The splash screen and credits have been adjusted.

As a side note, thank you to every player who enjoyed Lilac 0 this year. Have a wonderful holiday season.
