Inactive?

Hi! The update date on this mod doesn't change very often; You may think the mod is abandoned or inactive, but worry not! We're still working on the mod and regularly releasing updates to work with latest M:PN versions. Nowadays we just upload a .zip to our google drive which is linked in the download section, that's why the date on the itch.io page doesn't change.

Trailer

Some time ago we've released a trailer for this mod. It showcases some of the main features like custom origins, characters, arena stages and more. Here it is:

It's a montage of cool moments using various mod features, with Locknar's Funky Punch playing in the background! Really nostalgic if you followed M:PN since it's Kickstarter.

I just copy pasted the changelogs from multiple versions so some changes could be contradictory and stuff.
