Update Notes for 0.5.0
Equipment stats and effects have been shuffled and rebalanced.
- Passive On Hit Effects have been moved to Armour pieces
Weapons are now able to be leveled & upgraded.
- Using a weapon gains it experience which unlocks permanent bonuses to choose from

Massive number rebalance.
-In order to make some space and help smooth out some bonuses. Approximately all numbers have been boosted by 2x. This includes baseline damage for weapons and enemy health pools.
Weapon level up upgrades have also seen rebalances. This is just a first starting point and there will be tweaks to bring the curve back to where it was with higher numbers.
There have been countless small changes, tweaks and additions that have come directly from player feedback and I can't thank those people enough.

Preparing for the Public Early Access
It's been quite an ordeal to go from a game jam title to something that will live on Steam and be updated alongside player feedback.. but I made it!
I want to thank all of the people who tested the build and gave feedback and even a few who ran the game on as many different devices that they could get their hands on to make sure that it was stable enough to release.
I have learned so much from even just getting a seemingly simple game into the state it is now.
In programming there is a bit of a funny saying that goes..
The first 90 percent of the code accounts for the first 90 percent of the development time. The remaining 10 percent of the code accounts for the other 90 percent of development time.

Everything takes so much longer than it seems and in the process of creation you always want to double back and reimplement, refactor and redo so much that you've already spent time doing, for no other reason than you figured out a cooler way to do it.
The game will release in public early access tomorrow, noon PST.
It's been wild.
I am eager to await all the scathing feedback and invite you to come into the Discord channel (Find it in the Steam store page description) and let me have it.
