Actually I wanted to make a little Halloween game this year, but as usual I didn't come around to do so. Then like 4 days ago I had the idea of making use of the awesome Input System Plugin and adding customizable controls to the old Slasher Boy demo. And well, just in time for Halloween I completed the 2nd edition demo I want to share with you here.

So yeah, it's basically still last year's game. Probably not mighty interesting if you were around then and played it. Here's a list of the most important changes:
* Gamepad support, Xbox 360 controller auto detection and customizable controls through a little included app.
* There is still no music, but you can add your own tracks to the game with that app as well, if you feel strongly about it.
* Pause! Yes, now you can pause the game.
* Collecting knives now earns you an extra life, before you only received score.
* Boss and enemy exploits removed.
* Harvester stage refresh rate glitch fixed.

I was quite in a rush today, as I am leaving soon for some (actually not Halloween related) partying. So I hope no major issues slipped through.
If you find anything - especially with the newly added custom controls feature - feedback would be very much appreciated.
And not to forget: Happy Halloween everyone!
