🎵 Audio

Added new layered music for Ionia City (indoor/outdoor transitions)

⚔️ Final Boss Fight

Menus can no longer lock up during the final encounter

Shield HP bar now properly resets to 0 after stunning in Phase II

Fixed bug where the boss could summon enemies multiple times without waiting for the first wave to be defeated

Fixed rare issue where the boss would get stuck entering the Satellite Beam phase when all Resonant Orbs were destroyed

🧪 Other Fixes

Undersea Research Lab [Main Lab]: Fixed a collision issue in the top-left corner where players could clip through

🔧 Ghost III Adjustments

• Reduced Wave Blade phase duration
  
• Projectiles now fire in triplet bursts. Each burst is a single tone. In the final phase, volleys form full Triads (Wave Blade, Sonic Slam, Phase Shifter, or Harmony Shield)
  
• Slight HP reduction
  
• Increased stunned duration
  

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed bug where dying during Ghost III would respawn you with the Resonant Blade already equipped, causing a 2x scale visual glitch when picking it up
  
• Fixed an issue with the Neon Cyclone mod where dash, parry, and heal actions could become temporarily locked during combat
  

Thanks for playing and reporting bugs! More updates on the way 🔊⚔️

[p]Hey everyone!
I've been hard at work squashing bugs and polishing the experience post-launch. Patch 1.0.4 is now live, and here's what’s new:[/p][hr][/hr][h3]🔧 1.0.4 Patch Notes[/h3]

• [p]UI Fix: Fixed bug where Triad Description UI would stay onscreen after disabling the menu (only after respawning and then changing scenes).[/p]
• [p]Otto's Drone Link Upgrade: Otto’s scan now shows the color of Melody Stones when scanning (unless Hard Mode is enabled).[/p]
• [p]Autosave: Added autosave to the Comms Tower area in the Aetherbound Isles.[/p]
• [p]Aetherbound Isles Bug: Crystal switches were off when reloading a save after enemy spawns were defeated. These should now correctly remain on.[/p]
• [p]TankBoss Tweak: Added a slight delay after it drops mines to give you a fairer window.[/p]
• [p]Temple Gate Puzzle: The crystal switch for the temple in Aeolia City has been moved to a more obvious spot.[/p]
• [p]Aggro Enemy Reset Fix: Quitting to the main menu while enemies were nearby was causing enemy aggro counters to break meaning you'd be unable to interact with NPCs or data logs. This is now resolved.[/p]
• [p]Hidden Items: Reduced bobbing effect on items so they no longer peek through rocks or terrain.[/p]

[p][/p][hr][/hr][h3]🛠 1.0.1–1.0.3 Highlights (Recap)[/h3]
