  • The supply crate now has a rare chance to drop weapons.
  • Fixed some items in the shop not having a purchase limit when they were supposed to.
  • Fixed some controls not working when holding shift (you can now swap items while sprinting).

Thanks to feedback and encouragement from players from the previous update, we are striving to make the game better and more fun. Please let us know what you think about these changes. :)
