First Regular Update!

Hey everyone, hope you have been enjoying the demo. For the first content update I had to focus on getting new players up to speed. The initial tutorial was... doggy doo doo, to put it lightly. I spent the week trying to cram a basic tutorial to the original map we have. Time will tell if we need tweaks, but hoping this helps out new players!

I didn't forget about my veteran players though, this update brings some nice QoL changes and requests, as well as some fresh balance changes.

Next week I need to work on something fun, there we will new content coming in some form of gun/enemy/ new map? ;)

Cheers!
