Version 1.1.0

In the 1.1.0 update, Shadow Labyrinth completely overhauls the game's difficulty and balance, introducing the new "Explorer Mode" for a more leisurely playthrough by providing players with more attack power and a Tenacity Boost feature, which gives players an adjustable level of power after unsuccessful attempts. "Veteran Mode" preserves the original difficulty, and players are free to swap between the two difficulty modes at any time. The patch also introduces several quality-of-life updates, including improvements to the game's fast-travel system and major play control updates to Mini-PUCK mode to make navigating through MAZE and platforming sections more intuitive for players.
