The Hexrite Demo has been out for a few weeks and we've been listening and noting down all your feedback and bug reports, and we have now released our first major patch to make your demo experience better and smoother.
You'll find that you're playing the right version if you see 'Hexrite v.0.4.4' on the top right corner of your screen whilst playing.
Please check out the patch notes below:

- When respawning, you now get a visual pointer to the main objective of the level.
- Extended i-frames when dodging.
- You can now dodge out of the ‘getting hit’ animation earlier.
