* CORE Mode is available by default, allowing you to experience Eternal Edge + in a traditional Adventure Game fashion.
* Various bug fixes included
* Note that loading a save file from versions below 110010 may spawn the character in odd locations. After saving in the new version, this issue should be resolved. All the mid-to-late game content still needs polishing. Please keep in mind that saves are not backward compatible.
