Hey guys - very small patch today, but I can tell you multiplayer is coming along really well. I have implemented a global leaderboard for players to see their rank. Gladiators can also level up, visit shops etc - so the multiplayer loop is now complete.
All that is left to do is multiplayer bugfixing , some quality of life things for multiplayer and making sure the turns sync up properly, this may take a few weeks.
Cheers, Oliver Joyce

• You can now record the game in fullscreen mode at long last. Let me know if this causes issues on your machine (experimental)

• Small chance of NPC gladiators having colourful hair/skin outside of their usual species parameters
--- BATTLE CHANGES / FIXES ---
• Reduced damage on Throw Weapon to 1.33x regular damage ( instead of 2.5x )
