MidKnight Story - Version 1.057 - Hotfixes

Hey everyone!
This small patch focuses on polishing gameplay feel, fixing a few annoying bugs, and improving overall presentation. Here’s what’s new:

  • Finishers

    • Improved trajectory and impact for a more satisfying feel.

    • Tweaked the detection cone: finishers now only trigger if the executable enemy is actually visible on camera (no more off-screen prompts).

  • Handgun Aiming

    • Fixed an issue where wrong animations played while strafing diagonally.

    • Strafing with a handgun should now feel smoother and more consistent.

  • Character Clothing

    • Improved the fit of Paran’s outfit, especially around the jacket armpit area.

  • Loading & First Launch

    • Added a loading screen before the main menu so all assets load properly before the background appears.

    • This mainly improves the experience when starting the game for the first time.

  • Climbing

    • Improved climbing poses.

    • Refined the IK system during climbing for more natural movement.

Thanks a lot for playing and for all the feedback — it really helps shape the game. More improvements coming soon!
