    6. Fixed a progression blocker in the tutorial where picking up a weapon before interacting with Mimesis prevented further gameplay.
    7. Fixed an issue where acquiring a specific tier of Tech Chip would incorrectly present players with options of the same or lower tier compared to their previously acquired chips.
    8.  
    9. Update v1.1.0.0:
    10. Avatar Build Expansion
    11. When we first mentioned this, we mentioned that we would be improving and adding 10 Avatar builds - but this doesn't really capture just how much has expanded.
    12.  
    13. When you start a run, you are able to select from 3 Avatar Exclusive chips that determine your style in sense. When you select one of these chips, the way your run plays out is different. Not only do the regular Tech Chips that you can get during a run change, but also your Slot Module Chips as well as Weapon Tech Chips tune to your style. These sets of chips are what we consider Avatar builds.
    14.  
    15. Each of the starting 5 Avatars got new styles and new chips to go along with said styles. We think Ascenders are going to enjoy the new styles, such as:
    16. Golden Gunslinger | Electromagnetic Rail
    17. The first time you dash after Time-Stop ends, an Electromagnetic Rail is installed in the direction of said movement. When your own projectile attack enters the Electromagnetic Rail's range, if the direction of the Electromagnetic Rail's arrow matches the travel direction of the projectile attack, that projectile's damage increases by a certain amount. The Electromagnetic Rail is removed when Time-Stop ends.
    18. [Dev Comment] There are many new chips that help Ascenders make the use of this style chip, so go guns a-blazing! This style chip requires some strategy, but once mastered you will be a force to be reckoned with!
    19. Windborne Spearmaster | Windflow Spear Mastery
    20. Stab attacks consume Stamina to increase Damage by a certain amount while in Aiming Mode.
    21. [Dev Comment] Stamina now not only is used to dash (we see you dash build fanatics), but also can be used to strengthen the Windborne Spearmaster's Stab attacks. There are tons of chips that increase the usage of stamina, increase the limits, or the other way around!
    22. Scarlet Pirate | Privateer
    23. Defeating an enemy grants a chance to acquire special loot. You can own certain amount of loot items. When Time-Stop ends, removes all loot and fires one Projectile for each loot item removed this way, each dealing Bombard damage.
    24. [Dev Comment] What's a pirate that isn't looting, right?! The Scarlet Pirate can now collect loot items (that have their own effects by the way!) that will get fired once Time-Stop ends, adding MORE power to her Avatar/Hyper Skill!
    25. There is so much for you guys to try and play around with - we hope you enjoy!
    26. But wait! What about my Handbook progress and my achievements??
    27. If you have already gotten the Steam Achievements, these new chips will not affect you! However, for those of you who haven't yet, this does add to the requirements of unlocking the achievements.
    28. As for the Handbook, all of the new chips got added to the "Tech Chip" section!
    29. All New 'Time to Choose' Functions
    30. Just like the Avatar Build Expansion, the roadmap kind of undersells just how much has been added.
    31.  
    32. Currently, when you start a run and when certain conditions have been met, you unlock the 'Time to Choose' selection where you can choose from multiple options that give you an advantage to your runs. This was only offered in Stage 1 to get Ascenders into the fray faster with each passing run.
    33. With this update, not only are there more options for 'Time to Choose', but 'Time to Choose' will appear at the starting points of all stages after certain conditions have been met.
    34. Conditions:
    35. Once a player has cleared a stage, they will be able to unlock the 'Time to Choose' for that stage via the Fate Editor in the Underground Bunker.
    36. There are some really unique options for Ascenders to try out, such as:
    37. Me of Another World | Grants an Avatar Tech Chip from another Avatar.
    38. Storm of Possibility | Challenge Events always offer three choices.
    39. Future Manipulation | The grade of the next reward you acquire changes to Legendary. Lasts until you select a reward.
    40. Give them a go and let us know what you think!
    41. + Expanding Attack Options
    42. Aside from the Avatar Build Expansion and the 'Time to Choose' related chips, the team has also not only buffed most Slot Module Chips (in terms of damage and activation conditions), but also added a few more chips to add a bit more balance in the way of paths that have the least growth - specifically Tech Chip attacks, Slot Module attacks, and dash attacks.
    43. Currently, certain chips provide an attack that Ascenders can use to bolster their arsenal. Slot Modules generally provide a secondary attack once conditions are fulfilled and certain tech chips add an attack when dashing or moving. However, those specific attacks aren't really able to be augmented in any way.
    44. With the new chips that has been added (as well as some unique 'Time to Choose' options), Ascenders will now be able to make those secondary attacks even better. We encourage Ascenders to find these chips and try out new styles of play!
    45. + Overall Balance Changes
    46. We didn't just add a bunch of chips - we tried to make sure existing chips work well with one another. With over 100 chips coming into the game, we also took the time to balance some other existing chips so that they all play well together. If you have any feedback, please don't hesitate to let us know in our Discord or the Steam community!
    47. + Miscellaneous Changes and Fixes
