I uploaded a new version to fix this bug a few days ago - maybe you downloaded the game before then? If you are still seeing this crash on v0.8.7 (found on the title screen) let me know!
Ah so I'm playing through Steam which seems to still be on 8.6?
so just realized my fix was never pushed on Steam for Windows - it is now, thanks for mentioning this!
Haha! No worries, very excited to jump back in and play! Thanks for responding!
