Existing Content Changes:
1. Screen shake has been removed from boss fight #4

3. Camping on the platform will now lock the hero and the campfire in position for the full duration
4. Necromancer's ghost attack will now work when being casted in the abyss of boss fight #3. For boss fight #4, the ghost attack was working fine, thus there was no change required

Bug Fix:
1. A bug that causes boss fight #3 to have middle gate locked by mistake after teleportation has been fixed. The gate will now be locked when hero teleport back to the dungeon and can be unlocked after destroying the other two statues
