V15 - Housekeeping update

• Decreased install size
• Added a new toggle in controls to toggle between On Press or On Release of input
• Updated the Unity backend
• Implemented several translation suggestions
• Proper Cloud saving Cross-Platform Win/Mac/Lin now
• Migrating save files (copying not deleting so old one is still there) from old versions to new save location to be consistent with all my games.
• Removed additional exit menu and videos.
• Added unified Update text and "More Games By" panel on main menu that will be in all my games going forward. If you click the panel it will open to the games page and then won't suggest that game again on this installation. Also allows me to push update text without a full game update in case of urgent issues.
• Fixed reported bugs
• Updated store page and features where appropriate
• Resolved the broken Steam Leaderboards button
• Resolved crash on exit on Mac
• Probably other minor fixes I forgot (sorry)

Thanks yall. adamvision <3

Patch Notes:

-Modified the Blade (power03) power up to now award a point for every enemy that you cut through during it's duration -Modified the Point (power00) power up to now award three points upon activation instead of two -Modified the Time (power01) power up to no longer completely stop time. Now the power will slow time to about 25% speed but for a longer duration. This adds more challenge as the enemies still move which decreases the over powered nature of this power up in end game times but also allows players to better get close calls on the slower enemies. -Slightly altered the overall balancing of enemy spawning and speeds to compensate for the changes made to power ups. -Changed font throughout to better fit into the games aesthetic -Improved the look of power up pick ups -Changed the appearance of text and effects for bonus points -Better effects and particles for when enemies explode and hit walls -Softened and altered a variety of particle effects to make them blend better with the overall aesthetics and be more lean for lower end CPUs -Altered all in game menus to have more noticeable / functional selection methods. -Added minor new background effects to further the neon / soft / ?foggy? kind of aesthetic I was aiming for -Pressing back from the round end menu will now back out to the character select screen, and then back again will go to the menu -Resolved bug where screen shaking continued into pause menu -Fixed some rare unusual particle layering during the pause menu I have also created a separate branch on Steam for players that have issues or don't like the changes made, so they can still access V3 through the BETA menu in the Steam Client. Thanks for all the great suggestions from the community; special shout out to Hex Decimus.

Patch Notes:

-Added a small timer on player to show how long time based power ups have remaining. -Extended time slow power up slightly, as well as changed so enemies gradually (but quickly) resume normal speed instead of instantly. -Added a second check when exiting the game to properly shutdown the Steam API which I had reports that it had been remaining open after playing resulting in SteamCloud getting messed up. (will need feedback on whether this resolves those issues) -Optimized a variety of GFX and textures to improve performance on extremely low end machines. -Resolved an issue where transition system would get stuck and confused, resulting in some loading not being hidden. -Resolved correct link for new Developer page. -Improved some translations with player feedback. HOTFIX 07-02-2018 Resolved an exploitable bug with the special power ups. Thanks for the heads up :) Thank you to everyone for playing and sharing the game with your friends and family I appreciate your support immensely.
