No, it's not a new release. Next release will have a HUGE list of additions but I will need some more time to finish and tweak everything.
The point of this post is that I have been receiving some private messages (actuall 3) in this forum and other forum about corpses left by killed enemies.
The README file says that corpses may be looted to obtain various items. Some people have been asking me how to loot them. To do that, you may press the key [,] that is the same key for Pick Up. Basically you pick up the item left in the corpse. Using [a] will not apply the corpse since you can't find a way to apply it, but rather to loot or pick up something from it.
Fire braziers, barrels, enchanting shrines and stairs can be [a]pplied since you need to use them in any way with your own hands without the need to pick up and hold them in your backpack.
Also, arrows and teleporting pentagrams must be picked up, not applied. Some people could think that you may apply the arrow to the bow, but in fact, you just pick up it to place in your quiver. And the teleporting pentagram requres that you pick up it so you can demonstrate that you are worthy of going deeper, but you really no need to apply it in any way.
Other scenery elements like guillotine and impaled corpses are just decorative and you can't interact with them at all, other than 'observing' them.
About Magic Shards, that are briefly explained in the README, they can be picked up and then used into a weapon to increase its proficiency.
Once you pick up a Shard (using [,] key) you must select the weapon you want to enhance. Then pressing the appropiate key binding (^p, ^i or ^e) you will immediately apply the shard to the selected weapon. For example, if you see a Shard of Power, move your character over it and to pick it up. Then select a weapon to enhance and finally press ^p to use the Shard of [^P]ower.
The same applies to the other two shards ( L[^i]fe and [^E]ternity )
Additionally, you can press ^h for keybindings help and ^u for GUI tips.
I hope everything is now clear but if any other doubt, please post it in the forum rather than sending me a private message since anyone else can have the same doubt.
