COMPATIBILITY
This update is 100% backwards-compatible.

- Henterprise: Slower max-difficulty initial approach, reduced max-difficulty speed (400->300), energy ball (‘sun’) attacks spaced up to 14% further apart.
- Crab V2: Slower leg movement (1.5 sec -> 2 sec). Slower projectiles up to -25%.
- Superchick: Collision cone of beam attack reduced by 20% to better conform to its visual appearance.

BACKUPS
You are reminded that during Early Access you are responsible for backing up your own progress. Make a copy of everything under C:\ProgramData\InterAction studios\CIU (including all sub-folders).
For comparison purposes, it’s also possible to install both versions side-by-side. Just make sure you pick a different installation folder for this version so it doesn’t overwrite the previous one.
