1.2.4.0 update.

Added 1 new weapon, "Burning Desire."
The Stellar Nova Gauge's visuals have been overhauled.
Fixed Spatial Disk alert messages being repeated in Multiplayer.
The Spatial Disk will now animate in the inventory when new dialogue is available.

Added a sound effect upon attacking with the Konpaku Katana. Additionally, shortened projectile range.
Overhauled Neo Dealmaker: now has a faster charge attack that does increased damage, faster attacks, new sound effects, and new visual effects.
Changes have been made to the following weapons:
Takonomicon now scales with boss progression, and Void Octopus scaling has been reduced from 7% to 1%. On-hit damage of Eldritch blast has decreased, but the speed of minion projectiles has increased.
Ashen Ambition will now always return you to your original position after execution.
Sparkblossom's Beacon drones will now explode with 2x base damage instead of 3x.
