Steam post image Todays patch addresses some of the complaints about the difficulty of a particular early game boss, "The Brain", as well as difficulty across the game with some minor re-balancing. Full patch notes are below:

  • Brain re-balanced. 2nd phase telegraphs attack pattern better, 4th phase shoots slightly slower.

  • Fixed major bug where player bullets would occasionally phase through enemies and bosses

  • Extra life and "Bonus" award a shield as well in all game modes. This allows shields to be earned in Story Mode.

  • High score Name Input now remembers your initials

  • Wiped down CRT, it was looking blurry. Found flat panel CRT in the back and installed it as well.

  • Fixed issue with Japanese translation using "song written year" value as "song name". The game is still NOT translated! But it at least will show the English song name now.
