In other news, a new update is available, making the game playable on more systems:

Upgraded engine to Godot 4.4
- The game is now playable on older systems that don't support Vulkan. Some effects are changed or disabled.
- This may or may not solve some stuttering issues in the second area.
Added invert y option for keyboard+mouse
Fixed missing controller icons on menu when no controller is connected
Simplified collisions in the final area
Drastically reduced the size of the main menu lightmap. This should improve the time it takes to start up the game.

If you have any technical issues with the game, please report them here. Thanks for playing!
