Mash and Slash
Released
The Glow-Up Update
A changelist for Mash and Slash.
🎁 Added
- A 3D MASH & SLASH logo now headlines the main menu — it floats in place and glows
- A version tag on the menu, so you always know which build you're playing
- The Minigun joins the SPECIAL tier — a rare, shop-only bullet-hose with the blue SPECIAL badge
🧼 Improved
- The potato got a fresh redraw — cleaner idle, walk, and dash animations all around
- Smoother sprite edges, no more rough cutouts on the character
- The Railgun is held a touch smaller for a tidier look
🪛 Fixed
- You no longer turn invisible while standing still
- The walk and dash animations no longer bleed into each other — no more flickering double-potato
- Hot Potato now explains itself: explodes on enemies when you take a hit
- Ricochet now reads clearly — bounced shots deal -35% damage (no more cryptic "bounce")
- Panic Dash now says what it does — +40% dash distance below 30% HP
🚯 Removed
- The Minigun is no longer a starting weapon — the starting lineup is now Pistol, Crossbow, Shotgun, and SMG
