• Added Assist Mode to the Hard versions of all Minigames
  
• 🎸 Beatmap adjustments to the following:
  
  • Elusional Medium
    
  • Om and On Medium

Why adjust these beatmaps?

Based on feedback and analytics, we found that both these tracks at medium caused large spikes in our difficulty curve which we wanted to eliminate. As they're some of the first tracks that are played, we simplified some patterns and replaced a few monsters with food items. This means scoring is exactly the same, so your highscores are still valid.

We aren't planning to make a habit of changing base game levels this way, but this was significant enough that we wanted to smooth it out. Thanks for understanding!
