Update 27 (New user made map "Fan" by Ex3mx)

Very little progress on my part this update, I'm afraid, partially because I'm currently reworking the character model, which will be quite a lot of work before I can replace the old one.
I was meaning to get some more stuff added before the next update but I've decided to release an update anyway, primarily to release Ex3mx's new map, since it's been about a week now since he finished it.

COMMUNITY MADE MAPS:

  • New map "Fan" from Ex3mx (Max Graw). This is a really small map, but with really strong visual themes and some neat design elements. In particular, you'll notice an inventive reuse of the soon to be outdated character model as a kind of statue.

ADDITIONS:

  • Art overhaul progress: These are the things I've added to or changed in Factory this week:
    • Changed the wall panels to have fewer lines. Positive response so far, but let me know what you think.
    • Wires no longer glow, since I think general consensus was that that was a bit much.

CHANGES:

  • Changed the button colors in the main menu again, to reflect the new color scheme.

BUGFIXES:

  • Prevented players from picking up pickups that they float over when dead.
  • Stopped you from returning to walking mode mid way through a kick. I think I introduced this accidentally with the movement system changes.
  • De-shineyfied the character model, which was an accident in the first place. Hardly matters now that it should be replaced any week now, but it looked very strange to me.
