 == History ==
-*At release, the level used to have [[Richard Hugh]] as the third patient that showed up for the mechanic of having a fast heartbeat. In a later patch, this would be changed and Logan has now replaced him as the third patient that shows up in the level. This change was likely done for thematic purposes; Hailey is on the train, and having her crush be treated at the same time would make more sense in terms of the story, as Logan might be missing Hailey while she's on her trip. Additionally, the heartbeat for the third patient in this level does not use any [[Row Xs]], making said heartbeat less fitting for Richard Hugh, who is normally accompanied by two Xs.
+*Upon release, this level used employed a heavier use of visual effects in an attempt to further challenge the player. The section of the screen containing the first three patients would notably flip upside down, before flipping itself horizontally. It would repeat this sequence once more before the level ended. This screen-flipping effect would be removed in a later update to reduce the difficulty for new players.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZAooiXsIDw</ref>
+*Upon release, the level featured [[Richard Hugh]] as the third treatable patient; Richard is known to incorporate fast Classic Beats, and was presumably present to match said heartbeat in the level. However, in an update which came after the level's previous difficulty update, Richard would be replaced by Logan. The heartbeat, and gameplay itself, was left unchanged. This change may have been made for several reasons. It might have been in an attempt to follow the story and theming better, as Logan is the love interest of Hailey, who can be assumed to have been missing her for the time that she spent away from the hospital. Additionally, Richard Hugh is a character who views the Middlesea Hospital with distaste, making his presence in the level somewhat unfitting. Finally, the heartbeat in question lacked any [[Row Xs]], which is a characteristic feature of Richard's heartbeat lines.
