A big thanks to everyone for their compliments, reviews, criticism and feedback! This update features a new tournament mode, practice mode, Steam leaderboard support, rebalancing and other updates/fixes. The full details are below:

[TWEAK] Rebalanced pickups across all levels
[TWEAK] Player hitboxes when using sword and shield are more consistent

[TWEAK] AI tweaks to spearman - is now more passive in certain combat situations
[TWEAK] Colossus animation tweaked - now slower to recover after a heavy attack
[TWEAK] Player combat animations tweaked - recovery times reduced, chaining attacks together feels more responsive
[TWEAK] Man-at-arms slower to recover after throwing out a combo
[FIX] Fixed twitchy controller inputs in main menu when using analogue sticks

That's everything for now! Cheers, Michael

Hello everyone, the 1.2 update to Bannerman is live! Changes in this update:

Unlockable Shortcuts Unlockable shortcuts can now be found in each level. Once unlocked they allow the player to skip over previously cleared sections of the level in order to minimise backtracking and down-time in between attempts on an area's boss.
Player out-of-combat movement speed increased
Tweaks to player and enemy in-combat movement speed
Tweaks to player and enemy in-combat weapon speed
Misc. small dialogue changes
Resolved issue where game would lock when entering conversation whilst in combat (day4)
A big thanks to everyone who has given feedback via the Steam community forum! Cheers, Mike
