This patch contains various bug fixes, improvements and balance changes, including things such as the ability to jump kick, use kicks with more equipment, adjustments for held shield mode and the ability to bind the console key in options.
Please remember to rebind your console key in options, since a lot of you have used .ini edits before to bind it!
