Hello Adventurers! This week we bring you a complete rework of the lighting with more shadows and higher framerates! We have also combed through some of the more niche issues and smoothed them out. Enjoy!

||| Zortan's Ship has disappeared! |||

Pinhead
Fixed sometimes not being able to hurt stunned enemies if they were hit prior to being stunned
Fixed the slide stopping if you left the ground and then landed quickly

Enemies
Spikers and Spitters can now be coated with Swooper honey
While spikers are coated, they will have a slightly faster reaction time and move speed, and a farther jump attack range
If the spiker hits the player while coated, the honey will be transferred to the player
When a Spitter is coated, they will have a slightly faster acceleration and max walk speed, and will fire Honey infused spit balls
If a spit ball was infused before the honey effect end for the spitter, the spit ball will stay honey infused until popped
When a honey infused spit ball is popped, a honey ball will drop where the spit ball was
