== Important notice ==
We added an offline mode for the replay battle feature, meaning that if you use the replay battle feature without an internet connection, you will still be able to use it but without the online leaderboard.

other things patched:

• Fixed battle pause issues where the song continues when you pause the song at the start.
  

== Important notice ==
Minor fixes, mainly timing issues.

things patched:

• Fixed Tunnel battle bug where you die but goes to castle
  
• Fixed Tunnel battle everything become slow
  
• Fixed When you go to "Replay Battles" and for unknown reasons press esc twice, the screen freezes like this but apparently the game is still functionable and you just can't see what you're selecting and pressing on
  
• Fixed Jump rope battle impossible to finish if you don't kill them in replay battle
  
• Basque fully translated again
  

== Important notice ==
We mainly fixed some minor issues encountered by players using the new replay feature and some weird dialogues blocking game progress for the 1%.

Other things patched:

• FIXED After pressing difficulty press escape and you can reproduce this error
  
• FIXED If you let Rob's song finishes the game softlocks
  
• FIXED When going back to menu via pause or another that is not via replay battle, the static bool is still ON causing weird issue when going in story
  
• FIXED [NEED TESTING] Extremely minor visual bug: Because I have score #8 on the vanilla board and score #3 on the killmode board, it lights up both slots on the killmode board even though it shouldn't. However, this fixes itself the moment I switch between boards, and it returns if I leave and come back.
  
• FIXED mismatching IDs
  
• Replay Battles names adjusted
  
• Green Mage freeze bug potentially fixed for some users
  
• Updated Italian
  

We are thrilled to announce the highly requested replay battles feature!



After the player finishes the game(genocide ending) they can access replay battles in the main menu which is accompanied with a unique score system and online leaderboards!

Players will have access to all battles except some special encounters such as incinerators and quantum battles (which is not really a battle!) but we are happy to announce that the medallion sword battles and the tennis battles are included!

We have two rating systems the star system and the online leaderboard score system.

[h2]The star system[/h2]
This is based on how much damage the player received.

• 1 star = 10+ damage
  
• 2 stars = 5+ damage
  
• 3 stars = 3+ damage
  
• 4 stars = 1+ damage
  
• 5 stars = no damage
  

[h2]The online leaderboard score system
[/h2]Earn points while playing a battle.
Points:

• Sidestep or jump rolling to avoid a projectile: 75 points.
  
• Jump over a projectile: 50 points.
  
• Taking damage = -500 points.
  

During killmode

• Absorb small energy = 50 points.
  
• Absorb tall energy = 100 points.
  
• Damaging enemy = 500 points.
  
• Destroy a small energy = 50 points.
  
• Destroy a tall energy = 100 points.
  

After battle
Upon victory, the player receives a time bonus that is calculated depending on duration of the song and then adds all points gathered during the battle and finally multiplies with the chosen difficulty:

• Story mode = x1
  
• Easy = x5
  
• Normal = x10
  
• Hard = x25
  
• Expert = x50
  
• Insane = x100
  

Other worthy notes:

The leaderboard will reset every month.
No-hit achivements can be obtained in Replay Battles feature.
As of now, this update is only for PC but in the future, we hope to get it into the Nintendo switch!
The score system is not available in the normal playthrough only accessible in the replay battle.

Also thank you to Alessandro Cominu from Subvert Games for the backend support of the online leaderboard!
