Note regarding Endless Mode:
After the launch of version 1.0, the requirement to unlock Endless Mode will change to: clearing an EX Stage.
If you play an EX Stage using save data from Early Access where Endless Mode has already been unlocked, please note that due to compatibility adjustments, you will not be able to access Endless Mode upon your first clear of an EX Stage.
