- 2 new weapons have been added! (Winchester and the Mini cannon!)
Updated Weapon Visuals
- Mini cannon Added
The mini cannon is a 2 shot burst shotgun that pacts an incredibly powerful punch! So powerful in fact it will launch the player backwards!
(Uses Shotgun Ammo)
- Winchester Added
The Winchester is a single shot, high precision, quiet marksman rifle. Perfect for mid-range kills with minimum sound. Uses High velocity rounds that travel significantly faster than your average rifle bullets.
(Uses High Velocity Ammo)

Shield trail added
Shield will now block and reflect sniper shots
- Shotgun Update

shotgun fire rate slightly reduced.
- Sniper No Change
