Horde Slayer Update Patch 0.1.5 - August 7

[h2]Hey Slayers![/h2]

This patch brings some quality-of-life improvements, important bug fixes, and a few tweaks to the XP system and lobby functionality. Here's what's new:

[h3]🔄 Changes[/h3]
Fullscreen & Resolution Defaults
The game now launches in fullscreen and native resolution by default instead of windowed HD.

Tooltip Improvements
Tooltips are now click-through and will disappear when clicking or scrolling, improving UI clarity.

XP Economy Rebalance
The XP required to level up and XP gained from enemies have both been increased. This helps pacing without affecting gameplay balance.
→ The Keen of Mind passive now works as intended.

Lobby Privacy Default
Lobbies are now created as Friends Only by default. You can change this to Public if you'd like others to discover your lobby.

Difficulty Bonus Display
The lobby UI now shows the percentage bonus to rewards from playing on higher difficulties.

Attribute Point Highlighting
If you have unspent attribute points, they will now be highlighted in the Hero view for easy tracking.

[h3]🐞 Fixes[/h3]
Tavern Scroll Bug
Fixed an issue where scrolling stopped working after making a purchase in the tavern.

Duplicated Attack Fix
Resolved a network-related issue that caused duplicated attacks.

Miscellaneous
Various minor bug fixes and stability improvements.
