Thank you all for playing and climbing, here's the 1.1 patch. Some much needed Quality of Life improvements and other tweaks!

-Added the ability to hop off of walls instead of just the ground

-Added the ability to hop while hitting a wall surface, combining the hit+hop forces for a little extra boost.

-Drought Tower speedrun achievement nerfed from 10 minutes ---> 15 minutes. It was way too punishing.

-You can now skip the "results screen"

-Secret Falls visuals partially redone

-Secret Falls "Angles" section adjusted a bit, especially offscreen tricky jumps more visual guidance.

-Tweaks to the levels here and there.

-Made gems gold instead of blue (which makes more sense!)

Controller:

-Controller would lock to 45 degree angles even with joystick, now properly aims in all 360 degree directions.

-Controller bug where Left-Trigger or Right-Trigger doesn't grab a ring

-Controllers are nearly fully supported, give it a try! (approval from steam soon)

Tweaks / Bugs:

-Decent performance improvement from batching draw calls and other things (some area's draw calls from ~400 to ~100)

-Fixed bumper strange launch horizontally

-Fixed bumper causes Salmon to phase through objects at high speeds

-When following a ghost, any movement or jump will properly revert back to the player view

-Larger dash circle UI

-Showing the next rank on results screen.

-Time Splits UI limited to last 10 checkpoints, unless pausing to see all

-Fixed screen capture issues (hopefully)

Added moderation scripts for banning cheaters!

Let me know what you think! I have some ideas for fun upcoming content patches (by the way, some other levels are in the works!), let me know if you have more ideas in the discord!
