Hearts and checkpoints
Added collectible hearts after finding the last level brutally hard to survive. Lance’s suggestion; checkpoints so a death doesn’t send you all the way back to the start; got adopted with a caveat: leaderboard eligibility should reward finishing clean, without checkpoints or deaths, rather than rewarding any completion equally.
A proper bug-replay tool
Built a genuinely useful debugging aid: a bug-log replay viewer that steps through exactly what happened, platform by platform, from a pasted log; instrumental in catching a rare cabin-mode bug (a lava-death flash that would persist through a revive on the same level) that would otherwise have been nearly impossible to reproduce on purpose.
Cabin mode gets easier to control
Added a full-jump gesture for cabin mode’s side-scrolling sections: pressing anywhere in the ceiling area triggers an automatic full jump left or right, instead of requiring a drag gesture every single time.
