Ponpai Update 1 - Story Beats

Yeah, I don't think I have it in me to return to video devlogs. So I'm going to be titling these again! This is basically the start of the third era of ponpai updates, which I'm creatively calling Ponpai Updates!

Anyway, lots was done over the past two months, so let's see what's new!

• Pandomany's boss fight has been updated with a few more enemies. In addition, once the enemy's overall HP has reached half in this fight, Pandomany will kidnap one of your ponpai, removing them from the fight.
• Once you've beaten Pandomany, you'll enter the next chapter, with a whole new area to explore and a whole new boss fight with Ms. BuyLite!
• In the second chapter, you'll also be able to find Mr. T-Re-Rex, a movie director looking for your help with a fight scene! You'll face off against the kaiju Forktail! Kaiju will take up all nine squares, and while they have insanely high stats, they also can only attack once every two turns.
• On top of the ones mentioned above, there's a few more ponpai species
  • Scrubarush, a toothpaste squirrel (who will now be on your starting team!)
  • Aromore, with an attack that creates Flower Patches. These are stage charms which increase speed as well as heal you!
  • Savaurus, a powerful late-game enemy with vicious attacks
  • And Scavaurus, who looks exactly like Savaurus but without the same stats or attacks
• When talking, character sprites will flip in and out. Nico also has some new poses!
• The attack "Whatever" will show you exactly what attack you randomly selected, so you can position yourself in a useful way.
• For status effects with a chance of going away every turn, if the ponpai has them for five turns, they'll automatically clear the status.
• Some bug fixes:
  • Fixed bug where two barriers next to each other would let ponpai stand on either of them.
  • Fixed bug where the fourth page of befriended ponpai would not transfer between saves. Also added a fifth page!
  • Fixed bug where playing with less than three ponpai would place "empty spots" in the turn rotation.
  • Fixed bug where having a negative defence would let ponpai heal from attacks.

I hope you enjoy!
