IT'S TIME! IT'S FINALLY TIME!

Lets not waste any more time and get straight to the

* NEW ADDITIONS *

+ 1 NEW BOSS FIGHT
(This is the biggest thing I've added to the game yet, so I hope you enjoy!)
+ New Mechanic: THE SHOP + 7 Unique Upgrades!
(The shop appears halfway through the level allows players to buy upgrades with money they've earned)
+ New Enemy: The Hermit
+ New intro cutscene when starting a new run (can be turned off in options)
+ New animation for the game opening
+ Added an end to the game
+ 7 New Music Tracks
+ 6 New Options
+ Added options to the pause screen
+ Remastered the games title screen
+ Added flavor text to the death screen
+ Added taunting
+ Flicking enemies and projectiles now increases their damage
+ Added some rare stuff and secrets
+ Added bork

* FIXES AND CHANGES *

+ Changed the loading screen text
+ Added various effects like bubbles
+ Touched up various animations such as explosions
+ Updated the tutorial
+ Added sound effects to buttons
+ Re-balanced nightmare mode
+ Fixed a sprite error on the player where the second fin wasn't shown
+ Added "coyote time" to attacks and flicks to make the game feel more smooth
+ Warlocktopus lasers no longer have friendly fire
(Kind of unfortunate this didn't work out because it took so long to code. There will probably be something in the future that makes use of lasers being able to hit enemies)
+ Enemies no longer shoot when the player is dead
+ Fixed a lot of issues with pausing the game
+ Improved the loading screen to further reduce lag
- Removed the swoosh effect from the melee attack as it made the range for the attack confusing
- Removed points from the main UI, since the game has an actual ending now
+ Replaced the metal.mp3 button with a much cooler tripod fish button
+ Fixed a bug where mine urchins would sometimes explode multiple times
+ Re-balanced and tweaked too many things to mention here
+ Tons of other stuff I forgot lol
