X. GAMEPLAY IMPROVEMENT - THIS UPDATE IS LIVE

 

I have made several updates to improve the gameplay:

 

1. At level 1 (surface), the statue next to "The Pass" that needs to be found in order to get to the "Swamp House" is now more visible;

2. At level 2 (underground), "The Book of the Dead" now has a special ability named "Spirit Guide" that can show you the path to find the demon hearts. This ability can be used only when the book is charged with the voices of spirits (it charges by itself);

3. Now, you don’t need to hold Ctrl to crouch; you can just press it once to crouch and once to uncrouch;

4. You can sprint while you are crouching, and the crouching mode will reset;

 

Now, the average gameplay should last 2 hours and 30 minutes, including running in circles. Xd
