[h2]Updates to aiming behavior.[/h2]
The parameter "Focus turn speed" is now shown in the character selection menu.
Reimu has higher Focus turn speed.
Her Focus turn speed in previous game versions = 70 degrees/second.
Now, her Focus turn speed = 120 degrees/seconds.
Previously, in version 1.03B, Reimu would only turn her upper body parts toward the target.
Now, in version 1.04, Reimu turns her entire body to face the target, allowing her to aim even if the target is behind her, as she can turn backward if necessary.
Sakuya's aiming mechanics have been enhanced as Reimu.
In top-view camera mode, Reimu's focus shot has a slightly narrower spread angle.

[h2]Update to stage 5 boss battle.[/h2]
Previous versions : If players start the boss battle from the checkpoint 7, Monochrome Marisa starts the battle in her default broom-riding pose.
This version : If players start the boss battle from checkpoint 8, Monochrome Marisa now changes her pose before the battle begins, mirroring her pose transition from the pre-battle cutscene.
In phase 3. The boss's Hp bar changes color to white while Monochrome Marisa is shooting big laser and big star trail bullets, to clarify that she is invulnerable during this attack.
Added a point light component to Monochrome Blazing Star. This enhancement allows players to see light reflecting off the attack on surrounding objects.
