Updated Player Character

With Update 0.3.4 we are introducing a completely redesigned player character with cloak physics along plenty of highly requested improvements.

Game Description Image

The player character has been completely redesigned, featuring new cloak physics.

Super boss areas can now be exited the first 6 seconds after entering in case new players are entering the area. After 6 seconds the area will lock you into the boss fight.
The super boss portals are now deactivated for 3 seconds before being able to enter it (was 1 second before). Additionally the collider area for entering the portal have been reduced significantly. This should help to prevent accidental entering the super boss area.
Skill nodes spawning algorithm has been reworked to better balance the amount of base and skill granting nodes
Hearts now have an increased detection area for when they start to move towards the player
Fragments of Lights now have an increased detection area for when they start to move towards the player
Skill shards now also gravitate towards the player character as the hearts and fragments of light do.
Increased glowing intensity for weapon loot beams
Removed casted shadows for dropped weapons
Skill performance optimisations
Updated skill descriptions to add more consistent information
Attack identifier intensity for spider enemies has been increased
Player character size has been increased
Player weapon scales have been increased

Increased spawn rate of max HP skill nodes
Greatsword melee damage has been increased to 2 (was 1)
Shortsword knockback has been reduced
Scythe has increased range and reduced knockback
Dagger knockback has been decreased

Fixed a bug which might caused an error when switching ranged weapons animations
Fixed a collider issue with the hammer weapon
