Before the 1.0.0 major notes, Omniscye published an Update covering Android support, online private multiplayer, customizable controls, Struggle, and PP pickups.

Android: 8.0+, landscape touch with joystick, attacks, dodge, and switch. The post warned that the build targets 4 KB memory pages and that 16 KB page devices are not guaranteed.

Online Private Battle: create a room, copy the full EMPRESS1 invite code, friend pastes it; PeerJS signaling with encrypted WebRTC; no managed TURN relay in that release. Local invite links still work.

Battle additions from the same notes: empty PP slots use Struggle (typeless, close range, shared cooldown, recoil on hit); violet PP orbs restore 1 PP with the published spawn/lifetime rules.

If you only skim one later doc, pair this with the 1.0.0 major update — touch layout customization and room rematches landed there.
