changed· Fixed numerous spelling errors across the game. · Resolved a startup crash that occurred after completing the tutorial or a game over. · Fixed a crash that could happen when losing a level in certain stages. · Fixed crashes during the tutorial when dying before the tutorial finishes. · Addressed an issue where opening the pause screen at the last moment before game over or level completion would prevent the restart option from appearing and leave the menu stuck on screen. · Fixed an exploit where rapidly spamming "Next Level" allowed players to skip many levels (buttons now lock after click). · Fixed an exploit where spamming the level button could incorrectly inflate level attempts before the game transitioned (buttons now lock after click). · Ensured HP resets properly when quitting endless mode mid-game. · Fixed a bug where the player's gun remained active after the orb mini-game, allowing it to be used in levels and endless mode. · Corrected the boomer boss state machine: it no longer stays transparent and now properly cycles through all intended moves. · Game now correctly labels invalid runs for clarity and will remove or add as needed. · Game will now properly return to the previous menu after quitting a level or quitting endless mode. · Removed a leftover debug value from the previous patch.
