Pyrebound 0.2.5 gets its fifth patch, with another round of fixes and improvements to Pyres and the Crone of Blades encounter.

Changes & fixes

• fixed Crone boss health bar not resetting correctly on subsequent attempts
• fixed Crone phase 1 music not restarting correctly
• fixed a Linux-specific crash involving HALO Pyre Embers (the floating globes)
• improved Crone blade collision shapes
• added scattered Crone blades to the entire level (to tease the eventual boss encounter)
• updated build & upload tooling

Pyres

• Pyres now show a subtle circle covering roughly 95% of their light radius. 
  • this should make positioning and range easier to judge
  • it might be cluttering the screen at this point but I can address that with an existing system to draw unified shapes that I just need to apply to this situation and test thoroughly for performanec
• Pyres now apply an always-active debuff within their range, reducing enemy movement and causing them to receive more damage

Crone of Blades arena

The Crone arena has received another pass.

• added a new path-based arena boundary system that now prevents the player from leaving the arena (with visual representation)
• improved cleanup when either the player or Crone dies
• starting the Crone intro now disables existing corpse-pile collisions so the player can no longer get stuck on them during the auto-pathing
