Update History

3.0.0

• Dash attack has less startup lag (frame 9/18/24 → 8/16/22) with identical ending lag, shortening its duration (FAF 43 → 41).
  • However, due to a frame speed multiplier being used, the first hit has a shorter hitbox duration (frames 8-9 → 8).

3.1.0

• Dash attack's final hit sends at a slightly more vertical angle (78° → 83°).

8.0.0

• The second hit has more consistent set knockback (55/40/70 → 45/45/70), allowing it to link more reliably into the third hit.
• The third hit has a larger hitbox (4.5u → 5.5u).
