Now let's take a closer look at some points.
Updated Settings
I have been planning to put the settings window in order for a long time, and finally I have. Now the sections fit correctly on the screen, nothing 'jumps' or glitches, all of the items are clearly distinguishable. Among other things, the ability to change mouse sensitivity and additional screen resolutions in the Graphics section were added to the settings.
New enemies
Wild goblins were originally planned in the game, but due to problems with animation, were presented with only their friendly species in the game. Wild goblins are the fastest enemies in the game at the moment. Alone they are weak, but you will most likely never meet them alone.
Status effects
In the new update, Zombies gained ability with some chance to cause bleeding on our hero. This status effect, like burning, takes away a certain amount of health points for a short time. Also in the game there are effects of freezing, which reduces movement speed of the character, underwater breathing, which reduces the recovery of stamina, poison, similar to burning and bleeding, but requiring an antidote, and fear, which interferes with character's control.
I strongly encourage you to leave your feedback and bug reports in game discussions.
Have fun! Your Silent.
