itch.io

You're likely playing on the older version of the game.

The developer has created a new version that has a lot of bugfixes (including this exact glitch), but can't update the version on Itch.io because of Game Jam rules.

To play the updated version, access the devlog (which can be found just under the download links) and download the new version from the link found there.

Just be aware that it's based on an old, buggier version of the game (at least so far as I'm aware at time of posting).

I haven't used the engine myself, but those might be in place as defaults for debugging or stability reasons.

I've heard enough anecdotes about weird-behaving code (and seen enough strange glitches in other games) to know that sometimes seemingly-useless files are actually doing something important.
