Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment changes
Change Log
New: Japanese language options added (Kanji and Kana).
New: During end game credits, an icon will be displayed next to stages which have successfully had all checkpoints broken.
New: Device detections and icons for Switch controllers (Pro Controller and Joy-Con) as well as Xbox One controllers.
New: Mouse buttons can now be bound to gameplay actions. LMB, RMB...you name it!
Fix: PS4 controller now properly displays “Share” as Select, instead of incorrectly displaying the Touchpad icon.
Fix: Teethalon sometimes moving slowly throughout the entire chase sequence.
Fix: Incorrect fullscreen monitor displaying in the Options Menu.
Fix: Curio Upgrade menu can now be advanced with the Start button, similar to other menus that don’t use Start for another action.
Fix: Using Cold Shoulder after a certain dancing scene would pause the animation (the coldest of shoulders).
Fix: Specific timing would enable movement while still in a nearby shop after speaking with Red.
Fix: Defeating Tinker Knight very, very fast with cheats resulting in unintended behavior.
Fix: Being killed by Propeller Knight moments before a phase change would bring Specter back with no health.
Fix: Reize would appear incorrectly when defeated mid-teleport.
Fix: Plague Knight would sometimes appear without contact damage active after a teleport.
Fix: Performing a unique pose in a certain armor set is now duplicated by Blood Mirror (Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
Fix: Getting hit right when beginning a rail grind would cancel out death.
Fix: Specter Knight losing active attack frames when releasing a charged slash at the very end of a rail.
Fix: Starting Black Knight, Phantom Striker, or Treasure Knight with Skeleton Sniper or active lantern flames causing erroneous behavior.
Fix
Luan jumps prioritized better when backtracking through a room.
Change
Adjusted visibility of certain background tiles found in Tower and Flying Machine stages.
Various localization and menu prompt spacing fixes.
Improvements to keyboard key icons so they take up less space.
