Return Home

Core Mode Update
New Core mode added to every stage. The core replaces the split shot machanic with a chained core "option" that the play can drag about and lock in place using the split button. Core is indestructable and causes damage to enemies so can be used as a shield and weapon. All stages have a new leaderboard for playing them in Core Mode.

Unlock Core mode by destroying both bosses on Return Home or Leave Home stage. There is a new achievement for this: "MOFA Death Core".

I had originally wanted to include Core Mode in the initial release as it was part of the point of Return Home being a follow up to Leave Home. I had to cut it for the August release but happy to bring it in now as it completes the feel of the game. I am sorry you'll have to unlock it even if you've destroyed the bosses before this update, I didn't track that data so couldn't auto unlock for people with existing saves. Hope you like the update and thanks for playing.
