Starstruck: Hands of Time News

This update introduces a new playable song: Moldy Jack!

It becomes unlocked after a certain point in the story, after which you can play it in Free Play mode! (If you've already gotten past that part of the story, when you load your save file it'll automatically unlock right away.)
