  Update Notes for Feb 2, 2024

  Level 29 --Fixed glitch in where Hydrones would accidentally transform Helio by touching Crystals --Slight level design edit in area with three Dragliers in a row where it was impossible to jump to where they are without getting hit --Wyvern in the same area was repositioned slightly lower to make Helio land within its shooting range upon touching the platform --Adjusted Tooth Spike colliders Bosses --Bosses stopped respawning at their start positions after player died, so I made sure they started doing that again --Collision glitch with Shromommi's 2nd and 3rd phases caused her to clip with the wall and move to the corner, making her unbeatable; adjusted her hitbox to remedy this Improved Thin Platform collisions Fixed slowdown issue with Cave Snail fight (Level 20) Rock Guard in World 5 now throws smaller rocks at you, and the rocks match the color of its armor
