What was updated if you dont mind me asking?
hello! theres tons of slowdowns in the last build, so i optimized the enemies in this one just a little, this may be the last update before release.
That is very exciting to here indeed. Cant wait for the finished version.
Any updates? Been playing through thr ninth king and remembered this.
