Acts of Blood Demo Update Improves Combat Responsiveness and Audio Options
The Acts of Blood demo update adds Indonesian voice-overs, 4k resolution support, inverted mouse settings, and various combat fixes for enemy attacks, stomp animations, and counter responsiveness.
An updated build of the Acts of Blood demo introduces requested accessibility settings, audio options, and critical bug fixes targeting combat flow, enemy behavior, and input responsiveness.
Combat Flow and Controls
Counters are now more reactive, paired with a new counter input cooldown and interact input cooldown. Stomp attack animation speed and punching sound effects are improved, and weapon durability damage during stomp attacks is adjusted. Finisher move prompts now match the finisher UI button, and gun control details are updated alongside improved block mechanics.
Enemy Behavior and Arena Fixes
A bug preventing enemies from attacking in the arena after reaching 50 kills is fixed, along with a separate issue where enemy spawns halted at 100 kills. Level collision issues, ranged enemy nav meshes, and enemy destruction behavior before blocking volumes open are corrected.
Settings and Options
Players can now select 4K resolution options, adjust music and general volume levels, toggle VSync, invert the mouse, and modify mouse sensitivity. Indonesian voice-overs are also added to the demo.
Why this patch matters
This demo patch addresses core combat feel and technical gripes, making arena progression and counter timing much more reliable.
