Changes
- Changed “Quick Restart” hotkey to work in the Pause menu, Game Over screen and Results screen
- Changed all in-game menus to move the selection cursor automatically when holding the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons
- ‘Up’/’Down’ must be held for a minimum duration before auto-scroll begins
- The same auto-scroll delay also applies to all Track Select menus, resulting in a slightly longer initial delay but a much faster continued scroll rate
- Changed practice mode to allow taking damage
- Missing a monster in practice mode will decrease the HP counter as if the track was played normally
- Reaching zero HP in practice mode does not trigger a game over
- HP can be decreased past zero, indicating how close the run would have come to clearing the song in normal play
- Changed MISSed notes to show Early/Late indicators
- Requires the E/L indicator option to be enabled in the accessibility settings
- Enabling this setting also causes MISSed notes to be indicated in Practice Mode
- Reverted Vibe Chain changes from Beta v1.7.1 based on feedback from the beta build
- Food items must once again be hit in order to complete the Vibe Chain
- Wyrms must once again be fully held in order to complete the Vibe Chain
- If you’ve been playing on the stable branch, you shouldn’t notice any difference
