Hello everyone! Today we're excited to launch our Divine Strength update, and just in time for the Steam Autumn Sale! The Divine Strength update introduces powerful new blessings with a Divine rarity tier for each of the spirits. To unlock these, you must complete each spirit's Skill Tree at the Perennial Flame. Speaking of which, all the missing Skills will be added in this update as well. We are also adding the third weapon alternate form, this time for the Astral Cord Bow - turning it into a powerful crossbow that can also produce a detonatable bomb and a long-ranged beam. You can also now nominate us for the Steam Awards - if you have enjoyed Spiritfall then please consider nomating us for Best Game on Steam Deck

New Alternate Form: Astral Cord Bow

• This crossbow variant of the weapon offers high-ranged options with its wide attacks and can produce an instant beam with its launcher.

Quality of Life / Miscellaneous:

• You can now bind a key / button to Neutral Attack (this is unassigned by default).

• Implemented a better check for interact prompts when having multiple interactable options stacked on top one another or close to each other.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug related to aborting attacks during the recovery phase using jump-canceling. Previously, if the aborted attack prevented input during the recovery time, the attack could be jump-canceled but your horizontal momentum couldnt be changed. This fix should make the game smoother to play in a subtle way that you may notice during your combos, as you will now be able to gain horizontal momentum faster after most jump-canceled attacks.
• Fixed a bug that caused awakened weapon effects to stack at the Sanctum when switching between them.
• Fixed a bug that could cause the Poised outline effect to turn off permanently after defeating a boss.
• Fixed a bug that would cause the Rollback skill to triggered if you were hit while poised.
• Fixed a bug that could cause visual artifacts when defeating a Protected Dangerous Elite.
