Update 1.2 - Deeper Challenges

This update makes PROTOCOL 11 smoother and more challenging. Difficulty was increased with more enemies and reduced player health, and several bugs were fixed, including power-up activation, UI prompts, and odd character behavior. We also cleaned up unused upgrades and sprites, polished particles, and made various level improvements.

Visuals have been enhanced with LBAO lighting, improved animations, and updated artwork. Audio has also been adjusted with fixes to breathing sounds. The demo is now re-enabled so new players can try the game before diving into the full experience.
