Short list of updates

1. Combat System Enhancements:

New Abilities: Characters now have new abilities from the beginning of the game to diversify combat.

Swordsman now has the Stagger Attack – a lunging strike that stuns enemies in front of you. Stunned enemies take double damage from your regular attacks.

Archer’s Rebound Attack – allows you to leap backward while firing an arrow, creating a short-lived decoy that absorbs enemy attacks.

Empowered Special Attacks: Each character now has a gauge to enhance special attacks, which fills by meeting certain conditions.

Automatic Aiming: The archer now automatically locks onto the nearest enemy, while manual aiming remains available.

Button Buffer: Attacks, jumps, or dashes are automatically triggered after the previous action, enhancing fluidity in combat.

Gamepad Vibration: Feel the intensity of the battle with the new gamepad vibration options, which provide subtle feedback for minor damage and stronger pulses for heavy blows or character death.

Rage Mode Balancing: The rebalanced Rage Mode no longer stuns enemies but features a significantly longer duration and removes the previous penalty for early deactivation.
