hello everyone, it's been around 7 months since the original release of MiS-FiTS Redux, and in that time i've been working behind the scenes to further refine and update the game. and now, at last, i finally have something im happy with! here's a list of everything that's been updated.

- New battle animations!
battle animations in RPG Maker have always been a sticking point for me, they're something that always takes me a really long time to get done and it just ends up killing my motivation. so, when i was originally working on MFR, i opted to just use the animations included in the RTP as placeholders until i was ready to tackle them on my own. i ended up keeping those just because i knew the battle animations would take forever to get done, and i really didn't wanna get caught up on those. however, after putting out the game in january, it always bothered me that i never finished those. so now, after MANY months of procrastination and a lot of extra work, every attack now has unique animations, all drawn and hand animated by yours truly! i also rebalanced and renamed a lot of skills in the process, so there are some new gameplay differences as well. 

- A complete original soundtrack!
another thing i never got around to was getting a full original soundtrack. to be fair, there were only a handful of songs that were from somewhere else (the battle theme, battle victory jingle, and the GD backroom theme) but that still bugged me. so, the two wonderful folks who did the other music (Ava Payne and radiomicrowave) ended up making a few tracks to go in their places! Picnic, the new battle theme, is a specific favorite of mine, it's real good :]

- A few tweaked enemy sprites!
this one's pretty small, (literally) but i felt like some of the redone enemy sprites were a little big before. so i redrew em to make em a little closer to scale. simple as that. in a similar vein, i didn't like how some of the battle backgrounds looked, so i redid some of those as well. i think they look much nicer now!

there's probably some other stuff i changed that i just... forgot about, since i've been working on this update on and off for the past several months, but trust me, the new stuff is good. at least, i'd like to think so! i hope you all enjoy the work ive put into this, i'm really happy with it.
