-

Added single-player!  The zombies aren't very smart, but they bite... as you kill them, more will attack.

-

Added a rocket launcher!  It's probably pretty buggy, but give it a try and see how you like it!

-

Regarding the new weapons, press [B] to switch weapons.  If you look closely, you'll see the weapon indicator change on your player.  The pistol is short, the shotgun is longer, and the machine-rifle is bigger, while the rocket launcher looks like a shoulder-fired weapon.

Menu rework!

  • Main menu rework
  • In-game menu rework
  • Old "menu" is now multiplayer lobby
  • Main menu has backdrop (currently simple tilemap and zombies
  • Controls item in menu shows controls
  • Music toggle in menu

There are further changes to come for the menu, I'm sure.  It's still very early and at least partly there as placeholder data
