v4.0

- Changed the username from Imasheep to Orrichio
- Added scripting so the game doesnt always play the first song
- Swapped out the Balcony loop to the proper one. For some reason most places, including the older version of this stage, looped the song early
- Changed the preview image to properly swap between Aether and Basic
- Added the dog in the Aether preview

Major Update
Probably final one
Unless I find out how to add song intros

---MUSIC---

Added two new tracks!

Final Battle from the original freeware Cave Story, and Gravity (Boss 1) from the Cave Story Remastered OST featured in Cave Story+

---LAYOUTS---

Wow! The two forms are different! The Aether form remains the same, since that's what everyone usually uses. But, if you want a bit of a different layout, the Basic form lowers the Right platform and makes it a tile shorter. It's basically if the left was mirrored on the right

---FIXES---

I lowered the platform sprites. I didnt lower it enough so the bottom 3 or 4 pixels were cut off early. Yeah, whoops. Figured if I dont fix it now I never will so here we are

Edited the preview. It now
-Doesnt feature an early form of the stage before I added the grass
-Shows the Cave Story logo. Simple. Uses the freeware logo since thats what the sprites are from
-Has more than 3 bars on the Mimiga cage. For some reason downscaling the stage messed with the bars, so I had to recreate them by hand. They look better now!

---ADDITIONAL NOTES---
So my original plan was to make the Basic stage use the freeware Cave Story 16x sprites and for the Aether form to use the Cave Story+ 32x sprites. As it turns out, doubling the resolution of the stage's sprites does not work well with aether, so I am unable to do that. No big deal though, I found a way to make to two forms unique.
I hope you continue to enjoy this mod in the future!

No you cannot jump on the platforms in the background
Stop trying
They have been darkened so they dont blend in with the stage and so people wont wanna jump on them


Also King no longer blinks. It was creepy that he was the only mimiga who did, and he blinked way too fast. Yeah I dont know why I did that

Fixed Jack's weird uhh... vibration problem? is that what you call it? Either way he no longer rapidly shifts one pixel

Added a dog sleeping in the grass on the main stage. Good dog
