New 'Curse' System

The forthcoming Switch version is not just a mere port; it introduces an exciting new 'Curse' system designed for adrenaline junkies seeking an extra layer of challenge. This system allows players to activate Curses that significantly ramp up gameplay difficulty, introducing insane enemy 'bullet hell' attacks while enveloping the screen’s periphery in menacing black fog.
