Changelog for version 1.5

  • [CHANGE] - Balance adjustment for multiple attacks. Decreased overall strength and damage of unqiue, heavy and long reaching attacks. Decreased meter gain for every heavy attack.
  • [CHANGE] - Increased required fray for uniques. Uniques can now only be cancelled during active and recovery of an attack and only if the enemy has been hit (block also counts). Uniques now refund fray on block or hit.
  • [BUGFIX] - Attacks could hit the enemy even if the attack didnt line up with the enemys hurtbox on the y-axis, is fixed now.
  • [CHANGE] - Increased jump height, decreased jump duration, changed jump pattern to an arc and decreased hurtbox while in air.
  • [CHANGE] - Changed hurtbox system to be more accurate per player. Attacks still dont have extended hurtboxes as this will need another proper balance session.
  • [CHANGE] - Adjusted AI movement and block behavior. The difference in difficulty has been increased, while Hard Mode should be relatively the same.
  • [ADDITION] - If a character is hit while being in startup or active, a counter hit occours. The dealing damage, the meter gain and the hitstun are increased.
  • [ADDITION] - Failing a stage in arcade allows to retry the opponent without restarting from stage 1. Winning after an retry will give Score with a penalty. Accumulated Score until that fight is not affected by the penalty.
