Less Exciting Updates

"Reflex" renamed to "Counter Stance" to better reflect the passive trigger.
"Overflow" renamed to "Seconds!"
"Perma-spike" renamed to "Spike"
Dargon's skill has been changed from Iron Ball to Heavyweight

Bullet now imparts full kinetic energy to targets, especially on glancing blows. I think this is actually a more exciting update, why did I list it here?
Commentary
Thanks to a series of "I just gotta put in one more thing...!" It's been 1.5 months since the last update, But with this, I think the demo is pretty much complete! Now I just need to buckle down and finish the campaign. Granted, I'll still update the demo with any bug fixes and quality of life improvements, but I hope that with this you'll have a more detailed glimpse of the full game's vision.
Alright, back into the slog I go!
