Update #12: GUI Overhaul, Mouse Controls, Hyperspeed Tuning

Hey everybody! The massive GUI update is live! We’ve completely redone the interface for creating and joining games of Havocado. This should make it easier to find a game to join and to generally get around in the game.

We’re also trying a totally different tuning for the game: it’s fast fast fast! You now automatically pick up weapons. You also HUCK stuff when you drop it now. Anything can be a weapon if you throw it accurately. We’ve added a dash move to the basic punch which helps to move around quickly and to dodge. We’ve also added a wall jump to make it easier to climb large structures and to make getting around easier. It’s pretty different. Let us know what you think!

Also due to multiple requests we’ve added a mouse-centric control scheme. If you join as a keyboard and mouse player, your character now aims at a cursor and uses WASD to strafe and move.
