After receiving some excellent, detailed feedback on itch.io a few days ago, I was spurred on to release another update to address it. Most of the changes are quite minor, but the reason this is marked as a major update is because it adds a big new feature: gamepad support! I've added controls for PlayStation and Xbox controllers to the game description: I can't guarantee compatibility, or verify mappings, for other types of controller.

I intend to take a short break for programming now, to avoid burning myself out, and then resume work on Prism Warriors early next month. Lots to do!

Full update notes below.

Changes

• -Prism Violet’s first pattern is slightly easier
• -The fake bullets in Prism Violet’s second pattern can no longer be at the edge
• -The Compendium completion achievement now genuinely requires 100% completion, rather than accounting for the unlock bug that existed in versions prior to V1.3.6

Bug Fixes
