This update is a bit more "under the hood", but it's important nonetheless. Lots of little changes to improve balance and game feel in addition to a rework of the high score system and saving.

[ADDED]

• Each ship now has its own custom redline sights for focus mode.
• High score system now displays the ship used and sector achieved.
• Controls and tips now show up in the opening text crawl.

[CHANGED]

• High score system no longer uses GMS2's built in high score system (!!!).
• Executable name now says "GALXAGAR" instead of "SpaceShooter".
• Various buffs and nerfs to certain ships.
• Guardian's speed and damage have been slightly reduced.
• Halley's damage output has been slightly reduced.
• Slightly increased movement speed of Frostburn.
• Tightened the spread on Lazuli's primary fire.
• When using the analog stick with a gamepad, movement speed is relative to how much the stick is tilted.
• This change should greatly improve the game-feel of using  a gamepad. Previously, ships felt very slippery and hard to manage, especially with any amount of speed upgrades. In conjunction with focus mode, players should find it much easier to control ships and line up shots on gamepad.
• Remapped focus on gamepad from "X" to the Triggers.
  • This change is in anticipation of some features coming in the next update. Additionally, it felt odd to hold a face button while also trying to press other face buttons just to slow yourself down. Personally, something feels a little more natural about holding the triggers to increase accuracy and control. 

[FIXED]

• Fixed a bug that allowed players to modify scroll speed on the intial text crawl, causing problems with timing.
