Version 1.13 is live! This update adds the ability to customize a trombone after beating the game, plus a new track: "The Barber of Seville!"

Some of the changes here may require users to update their mods! The custom trombone required tweaking how textures are applied to the trombone model, and the update to the song graphs may conflict with mods that load custom songs and create their own graphs.
Full changelog:
Added the ability to customize a trombone after beating the game.
New track: "The Barber of Seville!"
Song graphs are no longer completely random and reflect the track's difficulty.
The breath meter now goes down slower when Practice Mode is enabled.
Very, very slightly adjusted the value of a variable related to CHAMP meter gain.
Various minor optimizations and bugfixes.
We're also adding a new branch in Steam that users can opt into. If you right-click the game in Steam, go to Properties, and click the Betas branch, you should see the following options:
Default: The main branch, using the newest version. Please use this if you can!
*Last_Update (NEW BRANCH): Use the LAST update rather than the newest one. Currently, this means you will get 1.12 instead of 1.13. You might want to use this if an update suddenly breaks a mod that's critical for your use, and the mod does not have an update available.
Previous_Version: Uses a significantly older version of the game, currently 1.096A. This branch should probably be renamed, but you can't rename branches in Steam and some users are currently using this one :-(
Betatesting: Around a week or two before pushing an update live, we aim to have the update available here so people can test it out. If there's not an update in the pipeline, this will be the same as the default branch.
Apologies for the slowdown in updates... we're working on something big that we're excited to share soon! You'll know it when you see it! We also finished up a big chunk of work that should allow us to update Trombone Champ with more regularity.
Stay tuned for more, and thank you for your patience!
