Chamber of Darkness
Fixed the major issue with combat (needs confirmation) ..
But we still need need confirmation that the combat is now normal, play the game and see if one or two of these happen:
-Time delay when doing a light attack.
-Not being able to attack after you get parried by an enemy.
-Not being able to attack suddenly or after switching to a new level.
-Heavy attack animation is stuck.
-Nothing of the above happened.

About the current big issue with combat...
It seems that the issue started to happen after update v0.9.6, the update delivered a new combat system, so the issue is now a little more visible to us.
Also, we would face some trouble fixing it since we didn't face it on our PC, or even experienced by the game beta testers.
We will try to fix the issue as soon as we can, meanwhile we apologize for the Inconvenience.
[Update v0.9.7] Local VS mode and major combat bug fixes.
Fixed major bugs in the new combat system, which are:
-Not being able to Light attack after doing heavy attacks continuously.
-Game breaking animation glitch involving neutral heavy attacks.
VS mode:
You can now play against another player! (local)
You can play on: The same keyboard - Keyboard and controller - two controllers (not tested)
A match is 3 rounds, and in a round each player has 3 Lifes.
We plan to add Post-Match statistics like "Damage dealt" "Abilities used".
Hope you like it :)
[Update v0.9.6] Redone combo system, new abilities, sound options and more!
We remade the combo system to make it smoother and easier to execute.
Before, to do a J-K-J combo, you had to press K perfectly when the animation of the first J attack ends, which is kinda tough to pull off.
Now, and with inspiration from MKX, you just have to press J-K-J respectively at any speed and the combo will execute automatically.
The new abilities:
-Teleportation:
Teleport behind an enemy, the enemy will be confused for 4 seconds.
Doesn't work on mages.
Cost: 10HP.
Regeneration: 30 Seconds.
-Mana:
A ground slam attacks that hits both directions.
Best used when there are 2+ enemies around, to ensure you regain the health penalty.
Cost: 30 HP
Damage: 25 HP
Regeneration: 40 Seconds
Sound options:
Added 2 options to change sound and music volume.
Bug fixes:
-Fixed a crash that happens when pressing P earlier in the game.
-Fixed "continue" taking you to the last played Monster mode level instead of the main mode.
[Update v0.9.5] Controller support, new mode and abilities, and more!

2 New abilities:

Continuous stream of semi-homing projectiles. (It costs less HP than what is shown in the GIF below)

Now you can play the game using an Xbox 360/one controller.
I updated most of the user interface to fit the controller gameplay.

Known general major issues and bugs:
-If you play a level in a mode besides the story mode, the "Continue" in the main menu will take you to that level and erases your progress in the story mode, please finish the story mode and then proceed to play the extra modes.
-Don't use the new ability "Darkness" when there are no enemies or one remaining enemy with little health (can cause a crash)
Bug fixes and showcasing unlockable abilities!
-A bug where you stay frozen even when you break free or get hit (major)
