Hey everyone! I'm happy to announce that the Demo version just got a big update! It includes a lot of the features I showed in the last devlog.

Some highlights

• New combat mechanics
• Reworked stamina management
• New enemy types
• Explosive environment
• 2 new talents: Unarmed combat + Athletics
• A magnificent new main menu screen

Savegame compatibility

Existing savegames should remain compatible, but your attributes and abilities will be reset. You have to redistribute them once you continue with this new version. However, I recommend starting a new game! :) [hr][/hr]
