Super Gear Quest

Patch Notes

New Stuff

• Added 5 new costumes!
  

Changes & Improvements

• Some weapons have changed recoil from before, and most will now ignore horizontal recoil unless you're moving backwards. This means a few different things:
  - You will no longer have to adjust your position when shooting and standing still, and shooting will no longer affect your walk speed when going forward (even if this was very very minor before)
  - Shooting while walking backwards can now be a valid strategy for moving faster and/or for speedrunning. Although it might be mostly effective before getting the Airdash ability
  - Some weapons like the Wave can now boost you in the air much better than before when firing them downwards as they provide more vertical recoil, and they can also stall you much better as they'll provide even more recoil if you're falling
  
• You can no longer use Starter's core during boss fights (mostly as no boss requires this mechanic and it prevents you from doing this on accident)
  
• Cutscenes will no longer disable strafing if you enabled it beforehand
  
• Matt now has a much smoother Idle animation in Kewtia, and he now has full dialogue (some of which contains lore/story stuff)
  
• Some costume prices have been lowered slightly
  
• The item get jingle has slightly lower volume
  

Bug Fixes

• Improved the costume shader slightly, so Starter should no longer use his default colors when he gets hit and flashes transparent, among other things
  
• Fixed a new softlock in Rainhalls that was caused by the previous update
  
• (Hopefully) fixed a rare softlock in Factorium
  

Patch Notes

New Stuff

• Costumes are finally back! Unlock them throughout the story and find them hidden around the game, and then buy them from the Costume Shop.
  
• All costumes that existed in the early version of the game are back, and 5 more costumes have been added! More will be added in the future since the feature has returned.
  

Patch Notes

Improvements

• Adjusted the first Ancient Weapon boss fight. The big projectile attack now has a more fair hitbox and does slightly less damage, and it does more damage when reflected. Also changed the weak spot on the body to do 2x damage
  
• Adjusted the Block Bots boss fight. Some projectiles to less damage and do more damage if reflected, and they attack slower
  
• Made a room in the early part of Sky Facility Underside more useful, as it now has a save point + acts like a shortcut if you have vertical airdash
  

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an important bug where you couldn't crouch on certain slopes or the very edge of platforms if ground wasn't detected behind Starter. Now you should be able to crouch as intended everywhere
  
• Fixed a specific softlock in Mokula Base
  
• Fixed some bugged post-game character dialogue
  
• Fixed a minor bug where items such as missiles and hearts would refill the core battery
  

Patch Notes

Improvements

• The final area has been adjusted once again: Now all difficulty levels have access to all save points, as well as all health refills.
  
• Lowered the health of Avatar Duo's final boss slightly
  
• A boss in Blue Corridor is now skippable
  

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an exploit on a late-game boss fight
  
• Fixed a very specific spot you could get stuck in Haunted Chateau
  
• Fixed some specific places you could see past the background in Haunted Chateau and Swamplands
  

Patch Notes

New Stuff

• Added a new X boss and a new achievement
  

Improvements

• The Rooted Entity boss is now optional and can be skipped
  
• Even more projectiles can now be reflected
  

Bug Fixes

• Fixed another major bug during a specific late-game story event
  
• Changed some minor spots in Blue Corridor to prevent rare cases where the player could get stuck
  

Patch Notes

Improvements

• Improved the collision on multiple enemy projectiles
  
• Made more projectiles reflectable
  
• Improved layering and minor things in some areas
  
• Made sure a boss in Urudia can't hurt you when it quickly disappears and reappears
  

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a major bug in Energy Zone where you could skip a boss fight and get stuck
  
• Fixed an exploit with a boss in Blue Corridor
  
• Fixed some places where you could skip certain cutscenes by flying over the triggers
  

Patch Notes

Improvements

• Changed some platforms in the Haunted Chateau Balcony to be more visually distinguishable
  

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where the victory message after a secret boss in the Haunted Chateau wouldn't display properly
  
• A previous attempted fix on a bugged door in Blue Corridor didn't work, although this time it should be fixed and working properly
  
• Fixed an issue where some Avatar Duo levels could get you stuck with boost pads in very specific spots
  
• Fixed a minor respawn bug in Haunted Chateau
  

Patch Notes

Improvements

• The final area now has more health refills on Normal difficulty and lower
  
• The final area now has a little less instant kill spikes, and some spots have been made slightly easier
  
• The true final boss now has a little bit less HP in a few of it's earlier phases
  

Patch Notes

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where a secret door in Blue Corridor would lead to the wrong coordinates
  
• Fixed a map error in Urudia Dunes that let you go out of bounds
  
• Fixed a map error in Sky Facility Underside where you could see the map cut off at a specific spot
  
• Fixed a bug where you could enter a door in the Grassfields during a story event where you weren't supposed to
  

Patch Notes

Bug Fixes

• Hopefully fixed an issue with the Phantooris boss fight where the fight wouldn't start because the player couldn't turn around. Multiple failsafes have also been implemented in case any rare errors are still present (ex: the boss fight now starts automatically after 10 seconds).
