Patch 1.0.4 Hotfix (26th September 2017)

SCOPE
Details of this section:
This maintenance patch fixes several bugs found and reported by players.

GAMEPAD SUPPORT
(BETA) Optimization & AI
Several reviews have pointed out that the controller scheme, no matter what it was, would feel a bit uncomfortable at playing, rendering the option useless. As such, we created an aimbot system with the following functionalities:
- Auto Aim Assist: The AI will automatically target nearby enemies, if the player is not using the controller's aim stick.
- Auto Direction: The AI will automatically target a position slightly in front of the character's direction.
This function has the objective to minimize the aim-stick movement for casual interactions.
Please let us know if we should keep this feature in and/or improve it!

SPECIAL THANKS
A big special thanks to Steam user brontolo2001 for helping find bugs with the game!
You can now quickly level up secondary and third abilities by pressing CTRL+Q (or the secondary key) and CTRL+E (or the third key), respectively, thanks to the suggestion of brontolo2001.

DEVELOPER NOTE
We'd like to talk with you about the last few months of progression in Dungeon Souls. As you may have noticed, there weren't any significant updates in the past months and the game looked a bit "neglected" or even discontinued. We do apologize for this kind of feeling we let off. Despite the fact that content wise the progress was slow, we've been doing several analysis of the community's reviews and taking time to fix the bugs and issues with the game. We've also taken time to re-structure our QA process so that you don't have to suffer with so many bugs (since it really doesn't seem professional and I believe we can all agree on that). We do want you to know that we do care a lot about your reviews of the game and we read and evaluate every single one. We'd also like to thank those of you that were understanding of the situation.Apart from the above, we can promise that we have quite a lot of content updates planned until the end of the year, already on the making!

REMINDER
Please check if the game now works for you. If not, please head over to the bugs and issues in the forum. Let us know what's going on and what can we do to replicate your problem.
