Midgard Update! Reaching below the belt

Due to a successfull audition at Reykjavik's Midgard this year, we have pushed out a celebratory update for the demo version, providing some small quality-of-life changes players would experience on the event.

• Downed status revamp
  • Certain attacks now can hit a downed enemy to keep them from raising up, knocking them a bit further than they would usually do
  • You can now choose the way to get up
    • Pressing up picks the character up like it used to be previously
    • Pressing back dashes the character backwards. This is useful against short range attacks that would hit the downed character
    • Pressing front dashes the character forwards. Can be used to shorten the distance from lying position, but is especially useful when cornered - when pressed close enough to the enemy, character dashes around them, positioning themselves on their other side
• Characters that attacked appear on the front of the opponent, to increase the visibility of an attack
• Small change to visual representation of hit effects

The work is not done yet. We're preparing the game for big, big changes, so stay tuned for updates!
