Thanks for playing and for the report. The 'Deep Release' exploit has been fixed in the new v1.1 update.
Regarding the era animations setting, I re-tested the era transitions multiple times with different configurations after reading your comment, and they appear to function as intended on my end. Could you please explain exactly what issue you encountered and specify which version/platform you were playing on?
Extra energy bug seems to be still there, inconsistent. Sometimes I will exit release and have enough from the first 1 or 2 energies to last an hour of release right after.
New era bug: I had it in settings to show only a new era after I had completed 2 of the endings, but it was still showing the era animations. Seems like it starts remembering new era animations after you enable the setting so you have to go through a whole run to clear them. I recommend leaving it as the base option.
Really good game, as with all such games, I am only sad there isn't more of it to play through
