Howdy folks! We once again hope you are doing well!
We're here with our second patch after release, and unlike last time, there's not too much to say about it. With that said! It is worth keeping in mind that when we make adjustments or fixes to levels that might impact saves, the game will auto-restart you at the beginning of the level in order to prevent any game-breaking issues. This was also the case during our early-access version, but with the full release, it's caught some folks off guard, so I thought we might clarify.
We've been keeping our noses to the grindstone, reading reviews, taking in feedback, and we'll continue to do so. Several of the changes present in this and even the prior patch have come in lieu of said feedback.
So with that out of the way! Here are your patch notes!

- Buffed Shredder damage from 20 to 22.

- There's a bug that occasionally causes Ambient Audio/Music to be inaudible.
Once again, thank you to everyone for your support; it means the world.
We hope you've been enjoying the game and that you all have a wonderful day!
