Last post before the v0.5 launch.

Everything seems to be lining up well for the launch of v0.5 for patrons and v0.4 for public. They will both be launched on the same day... the 1st.
What you hear is a preview of the song used in the platform section, along with Faye's H-scene. It is a remix of the Gratification Factory theme used in Future Fragments. It's written by Wishful Simping of course, who was in his element as he composed the originals as well :P.
Here I will do a recap on what to expect in v0.5:
New Game Type:
- Platformer - This mode is exclusive to the Future Fragments cross over. It's a platform section that runs by the rhythm of the music, and a gravity system similar to Future Fragments'. It may prove to be quite difficult.
New Characters:
- Cali - Has endurance mode, and takes home in a black tent next to Yoni.
- Faye - Does not have endurance mode. She can be accessed once completing Yoni's base scene, and the platforming section.
New Modifiers:
- Perception(1star) - Perception gives a % chance to score a "Critical" on a Perfect hit. Each stack will increase the chance. Scoring a Critical Hit will have double effectiveness of the progression gained.
- Barrier (1-Star) - Barrier will create a shield. The barrier will convert 1 "Hit" into a "Perfect". Upon doing this, the barrier will be consumed. (Barriers cannot stack. You can only have 1 barrier applied at 1 time, however AFTER the barrier is consumed, it can be reapplied by getting the modifier again. (a "Miss" currently will not trigger Barrier at all)
- Gravity(3-Star) - Notes at specific intervals will flip the play area vertically. At the moment, this modifier can be used everywhere. It may be subject to restrictions, or balance changes in the future.
Cali's Endurance is unlocked the a small side quest, where you get to see the first section of her comic.
The current state of the build:
The content is fully completed. Just need to slot in a few assets while it is in early testing stages.
Most of this stuff was covered, and I know there's no real sneak peeks aside from the music here, but the launch is in just a couple days.
Thank you all so much for supporting this month! The growth of SpunkStock has actually been incredible, and I'm so happy you guys have shown interest in the game! I hope you all enjoy this build, and the builds to come!
