Update 0.2.1.1001
25 Feb 2019

For this mini-update we've focused on bug fixing and making interactions more consistent and predictable. We've made some tweaks to the player hitbox to make movement and dodging feel better and more responsive. Another addition is holding to interact which avoids unintended consequences such as loosing health or giving away your weapons and items. This can be turned of in the options if you don't like it. And we've thrown in a new item too for good measure!
