Hello everyone!
Halloween has come and gone, but we are still working hard and want to present you our new update 1.14! Here are some new features to keep you all occupied:
First off, kicking has become a lot more comfortable, now it is directed depending on where your HMD is positioned, rather then being on a 360 axis at a single height. The pumpkin bombs from Halloween are new and improved (design and sensitivity wise that is) and here to stay to demolish the undead. Cutting a zombie in half now leaves some delightful physics based guts hanging out of both sides while not having almost any effect on performance! Lastly, we have a new way to brutality execute the undead, first you could rip their hearts out, but now you can rip their heads off!
These are the major additions to 1.14 but be sure to take a look at the changelog below, stay safe slayers!
