Lol thank you so much but no I'm not a bugtester or a professional by any means, I was just trying my best to make things clear while writing the list out. And I'm just screwing around with the game 90% of the time ("if I can do this... then can I also do this?"). Everything else was trying to be "helpful" although hopefully that post didn't slam you too hard ^_^;
As for weird things like my shortcuts, it's because I'm trying to play or "speedrun" the game quickly. I actually don't know how to speedrun but my favorite part of the game is when I'm near the end of the chapter where I can walk around across all levels during the day. The shortcuts were also learned from just trying to make sense of some glitches or find secrets during midnight, and flying too far from the main path for any reason = not activating any checks in the game correctly.
Also, sometimes I watch/listen to speedrunners or speedrunning documentaries (AverageTreyVG and Summoning Salt). So you can take a wild guess where some things in my playstyle are coming from.
On softlocks: There is unfortunately one more, this time involving the secret area at midnight. You just gotta fly under the invisible wall blocking it or very far to the right of it. Once you get in, you can't fly back out unless you quit/reload the game. Just found it over the weekend.
The only other major bug I noticed are missing names when talking to NPCs but not sure if that's an intended change or not.
Anyway, I actually really recommend contacting a speedrunner one day because they'll know how to shake the game for bugs better than I can (...leave the tutorial shortcut in if you do, they'll need it). This was also partly why I asked to make the cutscene skippable, because if you find a streamer or speedrunner to play it, it'll help them replay the game especially if they missed anything like the dragon statue.
