+## [0.5.0] - 2024-08-??
+### Added
+- Added a new Character Select screen to switch between playable characters in Freeplay
+  - Modding isn't 100% there but we're working on it!
+- Added Pico as a playable character! Unlock him by completing Weekend 1 (if you haven't already done that)
+  - The songs from Weekend 1 have moved; you must now switch to Pico in Freeplay to access them
+- Added ## new Pico remixes! Access them by selecting Pico from in the Character Select screen
+- Added 2 new Erect remixes! Access them by switching difficulty on the song
+- Implemented support for a new Instrumental Selector in Freeplay
+  - Beating a Pico remix lets you use that instrumental when playing as Boyfriend
+- Added the first batch of Erect Stages! These graphical overhauls of the original stages will be used when playing Erect remixes and Pico remixes
+- Implemented support for scripted Note Kinds. You can use HScript define a different note style to display for these notes as well as custom behavior. (community feature by lemz1)
+- Implemented a new Strumline Background option, to display a darkened background behind the strumline with your choice of opacity.
+- Implemented support for Numeric and Selector options in the Options menu. (community feature by FlooferLand)
+## Changed
+- Girlfriend and Nene now perform previously unused animations when you achieve a large combo, or drop a large combo.
+- The pixel character icons in the Freeplay menu now display an animation!
+- Altered how Week 6 displays sprites to make things look more retro.
+- Character offsets are now independent of the character's scale.
+  - This should resolve issues with offsets when porting characters from older mods.
+  - Pixel character offsets have been modified to compensate.
+- Note style data can now specify custom combo count graphics, judgement graphics, countdown graphics, and countdown audio. (community feature by anysad)
+  - These were previously using hardcoded values based on whether the stage was `school` or `schoolEvil`.
+- The `danceEvery` property of characters and stage props can now use values with a precision of `0.25`, to play their idle animation up to four times per beat.
+- Reworked the JSON merging system in Polymod; you can now include JSONPatch files under `_merge` in your mod folder to add, modify, or remove values in a JSON without replacing it entirely!
+- Cutscenes now automatically pause when tabbing out (community fix by AbnormalPoof)
+- Characters will now respect the `danceEvery` property (community fix by gamerbross)
+- The F5 function now reloads the current song's chart data from disc (community feature by gamerbross)
+- Refactored the compilation guide and added common troubleshooting steps (community fix by Hundrec)
+- Made several layout improvements and fixes to the Animation Offsets editor in the Debug menu (community fix by gamerbross)
+- Fixed a bug where the Back sound would be not played when leaving the Story menu and Options menu (community fix by AppleHair)
+- Animation offsets no longer directly modify the `x` and `y` position of props, which makes props work better with tweens (community fix by Sword352)
+- The YEAH! events in Tutorial now use chart events rather than being hard-coded (community fix by anysad)
+- The player's Score now displays commas in it (community fix by loggo)
