Bug Fixes:
Campaign Mode / Challenge Mode:
- Fixed a bug where the game would occasionally crash if the player repeatedly selected RESTART while playing Corneria.
- Fixed a bug where, if the player’s ship was shot down at the same time as defeating the boss Bacoon in Aquas, the game would freeze if Bacoon was defeated again after restarting.
- Fixed a bug where, if the player’s ship was shot down at the same time as defeating the boss Gorgon in Area 6, the game would freeze if Gorgan was defeated again after restarting.
- Fixed a bug where, in rare cases, the main body of the boss Goras in Titania would not reappear after its arm submerged in the ground, causing the game to freeze.
- Fixed a bug where, after playing Venom in Challenge Mode, the game would freeze if the player resumed Campaign Mode from where they left off and cleared Venom.
- Fixed a bug where, in rare cases, a sound would not play or would play twice after selecting RESTART during gameplay.
