New Official Stage: Quartet
Destroy four unique bosses as fast as possible. Each boss gets stronger when another boss dies. You can fight them in any order, so experiment with different strategies and compete on the leaderboard.
It's available on the workshop here, though you should be auto-subscribed to it already.
Community Highlight: Workshop
Chaos Campaign
If you're itching for even more challenging content, make sure you check out the Chaos Campaign by community member GNL2002.
At the time of writing, their creation features 8 inventive new bosses to defeat, complete with custom attack patterns and dialogue. While already impressive, the campaign is a work in progress so there might be tweaks and additions in the future.

Chippy the Anime
Also worth checking out is W1ND's reimagining of our official campaigns, with
11 bosses transformed into unique and stylish galactic waifus.
Hopefully we'll get to see the remaining 3 bosses converted soon!

Gridlock
Last but not least, current #1 player Krahie has authored a custom stage of their own called Gridlock. This challenging design has a particularly satisfying second form, give it a try!

Community Highlight: AGDQ
We were thrilled to see Chippy on Awesome Games Done Quick recently. The Crusade campaign and Xulgon (spoilers!) were run by Scrublord, who did a great job of presenting the game, demonstrating high level play, and performing some exploits.

Future Plans
We're still moving along with the Switch port, and are optimistically investigating adding local multiplayer support to all versions.
You can also expect some more official workshop stages at some point.
