This patch is most likely the last compilation of various fixes that solve the remaining obvious known (and less known) balancing and playability issues.
If you found Moonshine game mode too hard for the defending side or broken (in the last patch), both of these are now fixed. Other notable balance tweaks include Repeater and Melee-gun now being more usable in their firing attacks, as their damages were upped and Melee-gun no longer stops its user's movement.
Unless something urgent comes up within the next two days, the next patch post should start with 1.0! There might be some fixes included in that update, if issues are found, but the main focus will be on adding various content, making weapon and stage count match nice round numbers.
Cheers!
