I noticed the new updated on the Playdate Catalog and tried it out. The old crashes, which were very predictable (always the same place and time on a speedrun) are gone, but now I've been finding some new unpredictable ones. Also the new crashes take a considerable longer time for the Playdate to restart (went from a few seconds to up to ~24 seconds to restart).

I got a couple crashes captured on this VOD if it helps;

20:46 Audio starts to cycle and crashes at 21:01 with a quick restart (sorry about my own audio on this - my mic was dying).
31:56 A very long to restart crash with no indication the crash was coming with a long (24 second) restart.

Really appreciate the effort and time you've put into the game so I hope sharing these is appropriate and not annoying.

Ahh thanks for the update, it’s not annoying at all, it’s the complete opposite! It’s super helpful to know these crashes are in there.

Is there any chance you have error logs? Are you playing it through playdate mirror to stream? Cause it doesn’t show any error screen when it crashes, usually it has “press a for more info” and that tells you what happened to cause it to crash.

I dunno if you use discord but I have a bug report channel on mine and if you post it in there it makes it a bit easier for me https://discord.com/channels/948229596082487366/1290047190651113534

Just joined your Discord.

Was playing through Mirror and typically just keep my eyes on the Mirror screen when streaming. I'll see if I can repeat the crash and share anything I can to the Discord. Thanks!
