QoL
A monster's card now shows what it sells for, in gold, next to its rarity.
The end-of-run summary screen now lets you inspect monsters and trinkets.
The Batopedia, Settings and Quit buttons are now on the trainer select screen too.
Added Background Audio setting, on the System page under Music, that keeps the audio playing when you alt-tab away. It is On by default.
The Batopedia's tabs and its close button sizes increased on mobile, so it's easier to tap with a finger.
Settings now opens straight from the title screen, and Run History has moved into the menu button beside it.
Balance Changes
Events
The traveling merchant's exotic monster now joins your shop for the rest of the run.
Jinto Batomon
Currently, Jinto end game is full of one-shot kills, which I think is unhealthy and unfun for most players. At days 10+, median DPS of Jinto teams are almost 2 times higher than Pantra teams. I'm aiming to get the power level of all regions into a similar ballpark, so that I can implement more cross-region mechanics or game modes in the future.

Event Batomon
Talonite
Rarity: Uncommon → Rare
As a day 6 event Batomon, it's more appropriate for it to be at least Rare. This is a slight nerf since it will no longer be targetable by Basic Candy.
Wishwash
Slightly underperforming, so I'm upping the rarity of the trinkets it gives.
Trinket rarity granted: Uncommon/Rare/Super Rare → Rare/Super Rare/Legendary
Basilord
Slightly underperforming, so I'm buffing the payoff.
Burn: 150/300/450 → 170/340/510
Cross-Region Batomon
Boomagon
Boomagon is still the most popular pick in the game. It warrants a slight nerf due to how centralizing it can feel on the meta.
Cooldown Speed: 4/8/12% → 3/6/9%
Trinkets
All of the cooldown speed trinkets are close to the most popular and most powerful trinkets of each tier, so they are getting a nerf across the board.

Rarity: Legendary → Mythical
Items
Coupon
Day 1 coupon is a much stronger start than all the other items.
Discount: 5 → 3 gold
Gray Chip
Even if you win, the payout of gray chip does not even generate as much value as the other common items.
Win bonus: 5 → 15 gold
Bugfixes
Fixed the opponent moving first whenever both sides had a monster due on the same instant, so an enemy Vengrieve or Reapra could knock yours out before it ever triggered. Ties now resolve in the order the casts were queued, which is your side first.
Fixed quitting to the main menu and continuing your run rewinding the shop, so the next reroll dealt the same shelf again and a monster you had already bought could be bought over and over.
Fixed the game freezing on a black screen, sometimes for minutes, when continuing an Extended Mode run with a very large trinket bag.
Fixed the game opening in a window bigger than your monitor on a fresh install, which cut off the right and bottom of the screen including the Resolution setting that would have fixed it.
Fixed the game never getting past the loading screen on Android tablets and foldables.
Fixed the smallest movement of a mouse or a resting controller stick dropping the shop out of controller controls, which put a held monster back, cleared the selection ring and closed the stats box mid-read.
Fixed the "Progress Not Saved" popup being impossible to dismiss with a controller, which left the run needing a restart.
Fixed the "Tap your new Batomon" tutorial step never accepting the tap when the buying lesson had played just before it.
Fixed a shop enchantment like Aviarab advertising its current level instead of what it actually banked when you bought it.
Fixed switching accounts on the same device being able to attach your profile or run save to the other account, after which nothing you did was stored: no run history, region progress rolling back, the tutorial replaying every run, and the badge case refusing to change.
Fixed Android sign-in timing out on the frame you came back from the browser, so a sign-in that took over five minutes was dropped just as it landed.
Fixed picking a sign-in option doing nothing while an earlier one was still waiting on the browser. Choosing again now cancels the old attempt and starts over.
