GAME PASS IS NOT SUPPORTED AS OF THE LATEST PATCH AT THIS TIME. PC ONLY

IF YOU ARE CRASHING IN CHAPTER 14 DOPPLEGANGER BATTLE, READ THE COMMENT IN CONFIG.INI IN THE [SPAWN] HEADER

IMPORTANT NOTICE AS OF 0.33
Save files from versions prior to 0.33 are not compatible and will cause a crash when opening the Muramasa shop. Any save files created with this build or later will work fine. AGAIN THIS IS ONLY FOR STORY SAVE SLOTS. YOUR GLOBAL SAVES ARE FINE (SYSTEM AND CHAPTER CHALLENGE SAVES ETC..)
If you don't care about the Muramasa shop and wish to use older save files, simply delete the file named 00011.DAT.
Ninpo Slots: The game visibly displays a maximum of six Ninpo slots, but additional slots will still be gained beyond six when using more Jewels of the Demon Seal.
Boss Camera Lock: The boss camera can now be locked/unlocked using R3 (right stick click) and L3 (left stick click).
MURAMASA SHOP: DONT BUY PROJECTILES UNTIL YOU HAVE UNLOCKED THE BOW AT LEAST IN STORY MODE. Chapter Challenge doesn't matter
