UI

Local co-op: health and skill bars of p1 and p2 will no longer overlap (they are arranged slightly differently, and scale down on resolutions below 720p).

4k support: Added a setting for doubling UI scale.

Main Menu: game starting section is now slightly more sensible. Also updated email and replaced youtube link with ebonscalegames homepage.

File size

Reduced by about 30% by lowering size of textures. The changes shouldn’t be noticeable in game. (This is the reason for large patch size).

Balance

Bandit Stabber: nerfed a bit.

Model & Animation

New player animations for bows:
- Shoot vertical
- Shoot horizontal
- Stand

Added 2 animated bow models (Longbow & Shortbow).
