• New End Screen Stats! Now you'll see a short breakdown of your run when you finish. This is a first version, and it will improve with every update.
  
• Player Stats Panel on Pause Screen. Keep track of your progress mid-run! Also will be improving over time.

• Fire Sound Adjusted. A bit lower now for better audio balance.
  
• Enemy Projectile Adjustments. Now slightly bigger and deals a bit less damage.
  
• Crew Member Pickups Improved. No more weird collisions with the balloon. Smooth pickups all the way!
