Hello my name is Collin Hansard, sole-developer for the game 'CYCO'. This is our first public update for the rerelease version of the game. This update is using a branch of the game that has recently undergone alot of recent implementations for the next content update so there may be some regressions, but we found that some of these improvements where worth the risk. Please let me know if one of y'all spot any of these issues and I'll have it fixed immediately. I have only partially completed the effort to remove the initial boot stutter, there are still avenues I can take to fully alleviate the issue. The ingame stutter is still present but like I have outlined before, the stutter only happens the first time an object spawns, subsequent respawning of the same object won't cause the game to stutter even if you have closed the game out and relaunched it, I have some ideas on how to alleviate this but will have to come in a future update. Also this update may reset your config file for the game, sorry this will hopefully be the only time this happens. Config files now have Steam cloud support.

• Added button to toggle AI Attacking (Not available in final arena for thematic reasons)
• Re-worked Initialization system to speed up launching the game.
• Improved Character Animation Blending, all animation transitions should look smoother.
• Vastly improved 'Climb Over' Detection
• Adjusted Combo Curve parameters -Inverted the Combo Curve Damage parameter, you now do more damage the higher your combo. -I adjusted Combo Curve parameters to be staggered instead of a smooth curve so the changes are more easily and reliably to interpret. -Note: While we encourage combos fully. We are cautious to curb infinities / prolonged combos past 20/25, while it's still possible to reach high combo counts we are aiming to make it more difficult the longer a combo goes on.
• Increased the maximum color slider amount in the config menu.
• Fixed error that caused tool-tips in the config menu not to show when hovering the mouse over text.
• Potentially fixed rare dependency error that caused crash on Linux
