The development is going a bit slower than I'd hoped due to very lengthy power outages caused by the destroyed power infrastructure :( The next few weekly patches will probably be relatively minor until the situation improves. New movement ability: Tornado smash

• Press S while in mid-air to quickly plummet to the ground
• This, along with the double jump talent, allows finer control over your vertical movement
• Landing on an enemy will deal damage to them and cause your character to bounce off the target Note: Since the "S" key is now used for this new ability, it can no longer be used to dash; use Shift instead.

Slime spear upgrade: Frozen orb

• Launches a slow-moving orb that doesn't do anything, but can be hit with a slime spear
• Hitting the orb with a slime spear will cause it to shatter into ice shards that automatically target nearby enemies

UI improvements

• Action bars are now vertically stacked on top of each other, and (subjectively) look better and are easier to see
• Inventory slots are now colored based on the rarity of the item in that slot, clearly showing which items in your inventory are more interesting and valuable
• A confirmation dialog will now appear before starting a village-upgrading invasion, to prevent doing so accidentally

Engine

• Very slightly optimized dynamic world loading, which leads to a small performance boost, especially on lower end PCs

Slime whip changes

• Added a more satisfying effect of hitting an enemy with the whip, so that it no longer feels like a wet noodle

Questing

• Removed the "Kill 25 enemies" quest as it's kinda boring and serves no purpose
