added*Your save data will be deleted in the NEXT update unless you open the game during this update. This is because I am switching to a new save system that uses Steam Cloud! Leaderboard scores will not be affected.
added*PHAZIKA now uses Steam Cloud syncing, meaning your progress such as Arena upgrades will be saved across all devices, and is stored more securely and less hackably :) This means that the old save system is being removed, and any data saved there will go with it. However, I have implemented a system to transfer your old save data into the new system automatically, so as long as you open the game once, you should see no difference. The only problem is that I can't leave this save transfer system in the game forever, or else all the new security is useless. So, your data will be available to transfer to the new system only until the next update, which should be in about a week or two. With that, here's the rest of the update:
added2 new music tracks, so each Phaze has its own!
added2 new achievements for speedrunning Phazes 2 and 3
added2 new Arena items associated with each achievement
changedSteam Cloud save syncing and file security
Arena Explosion Radius bonus (including shop)15%10%Arena Explosion Radius bonus (including shop) decreased, nerf

Version 1.0.1 is ready, and it's got lots of nice stuff in it. This update does not include Phaze 4 or beyond, but that will be coming very soon! I just wanted to get out these features as quickly as possible.
