Co-op Fixes/Improvements:
Add support for up to 4 players in local drop-in / drop-out co-op (including ability to choose costumes for P3/P4)

Fix for MP camera-zone-related crash (e.g. occurred if players died repeatedly in co-op play in final boss fight)

Fix for soft lock that could occur when P2/P3/P4 breaks stalactite in the Canal and P1 is in countdown timer
Tweaks to lightning skeleton arenas in the Great Temple
Adjust co-op camera positioning in some areas, to provide better view of what's ahead of player
Update auto-bubble-due-to-long-fall tolerances with custom per-camera-zone settings
Increase general bubble movement speed, for easier un-bubbling
Have players inherit active move of bubble target when un-bubbling
When dimension-swap is blocked by one or more players: Flash those players
Update Temple of Rain dimension-swap portals to fail immediately if swap is blocked by another player
Disable low-health warning sound in co-op
Disable Temple of Rain portals for a brief period of time after a dimension swap
In co-op play, normal difficulty, when a player hits insta-kill lava while others are alive, have the player bubble (not die)
Auto-flip HUD icons associated with custom skins, when these are used in right-facing player positions
Change controller-to-player mapping screen to a single option (controlling whether P1 is bound only to keyboard)
Fix for soft-lock when player countdown ends mid Flame Face fight

General Fixes:
Added a safeguard to the Tule Tree that deactivates the Uppercut Blocks leading up to the Tree Tops, if the player happens to be dropping back down and one (or more) of the blocks is not destroyed
Fix for chicken bomb bug
Fix for misaligned damagezone in long room in Pico de Gallo
Fix for issue where blackness covering 'I am error' sometimes didn't fade out properly when player moved into the 'I am error' scene
Fix for issue that made it possible to respawn as human in chicken-only portion of Desert
Add subtle "wall slime" indicators to other-dimension hull visuals throughout game, as appropriate
Fix for bug where elite enemies sometimes fail to re-appear after teleporting out
Misc. additional minor/rare bug fixes

Version: 1.0.1

Fixes
Removed problematic FORCE_COMBAT in the Bergen goat caves on repeated visits.

Changes:
+ New Assist Mode added, allowing you to tweak the difficulty for puzzles and combat.
+ Joern now has elemental melee attacks! Yes, he only used Neutral attacks before. Did anybody notice?
+ A new hidden guest role in Rookie Harbor! There might be more in the future!
~ Screen shake option is now applied on all screen shake effects.
~ Strongly increased the duration of most food buffs.
~ Food-related SP\/Overheat-buffs got stronger.
~ Food-related HP-Regen is now a bit weaker, though longer duration compensates for it.
~ Removed distracting camera movement during the brewing process in Ba'ki Kum.
~ Elemental barriers in final dungeon now kill you instead of making you stuck. That's better, right?
~ Less annoying camera movement for some of the elemental turret boss fights of the final dungeon.

We released CrossCode 1.0 using the new NW.js version, but as a lot of players experienced crash issues we quickly downgraded to the old version again, offering the new version through the nwjs_new beta branch. Through a number of Hotfixes we managed to reduce the amount of crashes, which is why we decided to now use the new NW.js version by default as it runs better for most players. Instead, we now offer the nwjs_old BETA branch to switch back to the old version in case the new one still doesn’t run well for you.

We know that a lot of players experience a bug with Linzi's A Bard's Calling
quest - there are no characters near Pitax Academy. Our first attempt to fix
the issue didn't work for all the cases, unfortunately. As soon as we find a
general solution we will release a fix. Sorry for the inconvenience!
