We have received lots of feedback for the demo!
So here's some QOL (damage numbers, health bar HUD, better descriptions and more), some bugfixes, balancing changes as well as some fresh new talents!
Here's the complete changelog:

- Added optional damage numbers (see Options)
- Added optional player health bar (see Options)
- Weapons now indicate cooldown with their brightness
- Added “Adventurer” talent

Balance:
- Reduced Lightning Strike cooldown
- Reduced the requirements for “Steel Dragon” from 2 neutral items to only 1

- Sir Honkalot now has more invincibility after dashing, allowing offensive dashes
- Rebalanced heart pickup to heal a bit less early and a bit more late game

- Ruby shield block scaling from 10%/15%/20% -> 10%/12.5%/15%
