Update #16 - Halloween

[h2]Hi there![/h2]

I'm excited to release an update that focuses on extending the melee system by adding new status effects and new weapons.

Let's dive in!

[h3][Game] Melee Extensions[/h3]

Status

Description

Stun - Zombies that are stunned cannot move. Blunt melee weapons have a moderate chance to stun.

Decapitation - When attacking a zombie with a headshot, there is a chance the zombie will be decapitated. Bladed weapons are most suited to this task.

Kneecapping - A zombie that is kneecapped will instantly become a crawler regardless of remaining health. Some blunt melee weapons have a moderate chance to kneecap zombies.

[h3][Equipment] New Weapons[/h3]

Three new weapons have been added. Check them out!

[h3][Balance] Weapon Rebalances[/h3]
