Working on a new optional boss to smooth out the difficulty curve a little
This one will have a smaller moveset compared to the others, but these slower and heavier attacks can still pose a major threat if you're not careful

Some small animation tweaks to make the greatsword attacks slower
These animations are almost 1 year old, so it's about time to revisit them

Speed yes, the other bosses will make things even faster and more intense.
Verticality maybe? I only just figured out how to implement the vertical movement for the boss, so I haven't thought that far yet.

Last skill: transfer YOUR stance damage to a target.
It's most effective when you're nearly stance broken yourself.

With that, the player moveset is finally complete. There's a few more things to add and balance, but the concepts for all 8 skills are settled.

New ability: an ice blade that can be dual wielded.
Inflicts Frost, increasing damage taken.
It's a little slower than regular attacks, but the versatility of the many follow-up attack options more than makes up for it.

Update is now live on itch and Steam playtest.

Lots of comments about this one, so the transition cutscene will now wait for your execution to finish before starting.

Deflecting now guards against attacks from behind, but ONLY for timed deflects and NOT when just holding up block.
Also, you can now see character silhouettes through walls.

(Still got a bit more work to do before the next playable update, though)
