Antecedent Update v1.0.5

This minor update is (once again) full of improvements, bug fixes and other stuff that helps to prepare for the upcoming major update.

The good news is that all of the new content is finished, including a new boss, an arena with waves of enemies and many new items and abilities such as the charged sword attack, a sword parry ability, shirt armor, drones which help find 100% items and a cursed ring which makes enemies more difficult but increases your final score.

Because the major update will be launched on all platforms simultaneously (including PS4 and Xbox One), some more time is required to test for quality assurance and go through the approval and validation processes on those platforms. While these things are being finalized, you can try everything out in the beta version. Just switch to the beta and give it a shot. Instructions on how to switch to the beta version here.

So here's two changelog lists, one for the upcoming major update (v1.1.0) and one for all the fixes and new features in this current version (v.1.0.5):
