Version V1.0.5 arrives as a tightly scoped balance pass for Cat Gladiator, touching weapons, bosses, items, and the fish-selling economy in one sweep.

What changed

Great Sword

  • A new Perfect Iron Mountain Charge no longer drains HP on success and instead grants a 5-second Stun Attack Buff.
  • Energy costs for certain Great Sword moves have been adjusted.

Bosses

  • GiantBear and Bladetail shockwaves now travel along the ground and can be avoided with aerial attacks.
  • Terrafist movement speed has been adjusted.

Items

  • Item usage can now be interrupted by dodging.
  • The Heal Grill heals for a greater amount.
  • Unlock materials for HpPotion II have changed.
  • The Item Bag can now hold one additional item.
  • AtkBBQ and HealBBQ enter cooldown when used in the preparation room.

Economy & UI

  • Fish selling prices have been reduced across the board.
  • Room list sorting has been optimized, and a swipe shortcut has been added.

Bug fixes address a multi-response invite button, unsaved main volume settings, combat mouse-click failures caused by UI elements, an Item Bag co-op sync issue, the Fishing Rod missing from the leaderboard, and unclickable menu tabs.

The Great Sword changes in particular shift the weapon from a punishing HP gamble toward a more rewarding skill expression — players who land the Perfect Iron Mountain Charge now gain offensive momentum rather than simply avoiding a penalty.
