<0.63.0>

<0.62.9>
- Added a Sin chance feature which lowers the chance of the players who were previously sins. Resets all player’s chance to default every 5 games. For now, chance reduction is set to 20%, e.g. if a player gets chosen, their chance is reduced by 20%, making those other players with a higher chance more favourable for being chosen as a sin.

- Spectator’s voice will be muted when joining since players can hear them, when T is pressed, it will say to wait for the next game. Test if this mutes player.
- Other minor fixes

<0.62.6>
- Gluttony jump stamina cost reduced from 35 to 20, increased jump knockback range
- Pride summon portal stamina reduced from 25 to 15
- Lust initial amount of minions can spawn upon being chosen increased from 1 to 2.
- Practice mode in development

<0.62.5>
- Increased bat knockback amount from 400 to 550 for normal attack, and 700 to 800 for hold left click attack: this includes the up/Z height multiplier (experimental)
- Gluttony now actually deals heavy damage if landing directly on top of someone when transforming mid-air.
- Reduced gluttony jump stamina cost from 50 to 35: this will allow players to use the jump on landing knockback effect (experimental, might be too OP).
- Added an option to select the region to show when players find your lobby.
- Revamped Pride's Mirror Ability
- Fixes teleport point issues, so that it now accomodates for 15 players instead of 12
- Tips popup text not working for translations issue fixed.

<0.62.4>

- Clients can now press fix 2D voice button in sounds options menu to fix the 2D voice issue

- Other minor fixes

<0.62.2>
- Reduced greed pickup dmg to 3+ per item pickup instead of 5.
- Disguised Envy now runs same as the normal human speed.
- Pride portal stamina cost reduced by 5 points, Pride in sin mode has air control increased by 0.1 from 0.4 to 0.5 (human is 0.3).
- Wrath does more damage depending on Wrath gauge bar amount, extra 100% if bar is completely full (damage + (1.0 bar full *damage) ). Wrath simple attack (left click attack) reduced by 2.5 damage from 15 to 12.5 as wrath starts the game with 50% bar full making the left click attack too op with the new gauge damage multiplier. Will be made less OP once climbing ability is implemented.
- Gluttony now also has a on landed knockback effect (rather than knocking away, it launches the player towards the gluttony player, hence timing is important for timing an eat attack). This factors in height velocity for a stronger knockback, also dealing light damage based on distance from the radius of the Gluttony. (Future potential changes: Maybe per body eaten, it will also increase the weight/multiplier amount whilst also changing the size of gluttony with its initial size on game start being smaller than its current size).


<0.62.1>
- Pride can now summon 4 Portals - 2 Purple, 2 Yellow. Purple goes to Purple and Yellow goes to Yellow. Summon the second of the same coloured portal using right click.
- Gluttony can now crush/damage players below when in air/landing. Damage dealt depends of downwards velocity.
- Jump uses a little bit of stamina.
