  • Ragdolls are now automatically removed after 100 are on the screen. This number would never occur in normal play, but it is good to have to prevent all possible lag.

  • Dropped weapons are now automatically removed after 100 are on the screen.

  • Renamed dolphin to Delphinus. Delphinus makes more sense for Greek mythology. She was a dolphin that helped Poseidon, and in return he placed her amongst the stars (as a constellation).

  • Added a "hotkeys" command to the console. It displays possible hotkeys to press.

  • Tested the new lightning with gamepad to ensure it works as intended.

  • Blocking dragon's fire with your shield now does a lot more damage. It is now the best way in regular play to deal damage to the dragon (except for the legendary weapons that you aquire after beating new game+).

  • You can now hover your large club over the camp fire before entering the hydra's lair to transform it into a torch. Also changed it so that the number of hydra's that spawn will be different based on if you have a torch or not. This balances things out.

  • Fixed a sound bug that caused the normal thud/ragdoll death sound play when hitting an enemy with your boat, even if ragdolls was disabled.

  • Some Laomedon feathers could drop outside of the player's reach at the edge of the screen. Feathers will now always be attainable.

  • The player could press "Ctrl" on the final level to cause the screen to shake. This was for the developer for when I was testing screen shake system. I have disabled it for "release" mode.

  • Added a fun new secret on the level, "Ahoy!".

  • Fixed bug that caused "New Buff Available" popup to not go away after collecting the new buff.

  • Fixed bug that caused death sound to constinuously play if the player had Invinicibility enabled and kept taking fatal damage.

  • Added the Shop section to the Arcade popup. It contains the t-shirt and will one day contain other merch.

  • Updated the cover art's final form in the credits. It was the older non-crisp version.

  • Added the t-shirt designer to the credits.

  • Updated all of the game's patch notes to have updated images. It now shows the patch name on each patch image.
