  8. Simplified Tobi's monologue when he explains garbage collecting mechanics

  9. Removed feature where player could be killed by falling

  10. Fixed Tobi's position so that he will be visible after he lands from the cliff jump at the end

  11. Fixed butterfly's idle animation which no longer glitches out randomly

  12. Added "Report an issue" button to main menu which players can use to report any problem related to the game
