Lasers now can toggle on and off when player touches a switch beam somewhere else. It's highly customizable and available now in the Level Editor and Custom Levels section! Let's see what challenges and puzzles you can make with it.
Incredibly cool fact: This feature was requested and actually funded by a community member RawGreen, and very cleanly developed by another community member -7.
Ukrainian Language support
The whole UI is now available in Ukrainian language, localized by Lacki23

Dream Swing is released!
If you like Remnants of Naezith, you might want to try the 3D version!
You can now select the leaderboard entries with the shown binding. Then when you play, or watch any replay, those selected entries will play at the same time!
There is no limit on how many you can select, just 1 or 100s if you'd like!

Export and Import replays
Another feature that has been added is exporting and importing replays.
Pressing F1 saves replay to %ron_directory%/replays folder.
And Replay files in %ron_directory%/replays/import are imported as ghosts.
My custom replay file Slowball for example automatically imports into the Threshold level:
If you are nerdy enough, you can understand the contents of these replay files and manually edit them. Each line is made of "ticks count to wait" and key presses/releases.

* This update is on Windows only for now. Linux users can run the Windows build with Proton.
Upcoming mini-game, Dream Swing!
I made a new grappling hook mini-game which hopefully will be released this year after the Next Fest! Not even close to the scale of Remnants of Naezith but something to just lose yourself in, chilling. It has a Leaderboard and replay system as well. You can check it out:
First of all, if you are enjoying this game, you have to join our tiny but comfy, verifiedDiscord Server. We are having so much fun in there, since community is really small, everyone knows each other. And of course, all of the top players are in there so you can get tips etc.

Update!
A big maintaining update! Please let me know if something breaks after this, I'll immediately try to fix.
Cleaner initial loading code, less crashes.
Optimized dash and eye particles.
Cached Text rendering.
Removed deprecated Orb code.
Removed the leftover polling for key press, gamepad button press and axis.
Decrease particle counts.
Merged tile layer, decoration layer and slime layer rendering.
Merge four chapters, slime and decoration tilesets into single image.
Editor: Fixed first playtest was starting 1 tick later, making player invulnerable for an extra tick.
Optimized rock, dust, laser, hook, dash, eye and levitating particle rendering.
Changed Tile Map chunk size, might be a tiny performance improvement.
Fixed Water Quality setting was not resetting at Restore Defaults.
Fixed "Restore Defaults" in Graphics Settings was not setting vertical sync instantly.
Fix if FPS cap was not OFF, it was still processing even if V-Sync is on, potentially causing stutter.
More precise interpolation calculation. (float -> double)
FPS Cap is 60 by default now, if V-Sync is off in driver, game will still try to avoid stutter this way. Match it with your monitor's refresh rate.
Fixed two of the floating water blocks in Floodgate were overlapping.
Updated SFML to latest https://github.com/SFML/SFML
Removed Reddit link.
Converted naezith.com to hub.naezith.com
Fixed a bug at pull mechanic.
Gamepad stick threshold is fixed 70 in menus now, this fixed the problem that up/down is being too sensitive if threshold is 10.
Changed keybind highlight color to gold.
Watch hint at Leaderboard is more visible now.
Fixed fresh leaderboard entry dates sometimes showing Yesterday instead of Today.
Preloading Storyboard to run it cleaner.
Better threading.
Cleaner program exit, there won't be errors at quit hopefully.
Raycast stops when it's out of the map, performance optimization.
Disabled waterfall particles.
Disabled lightning effects on the game title.
Fixed best scores at a first-time play were not saving until you get out of the level once in Offline Mode.
Polished translations.
Fixed the skip at Bandicap.
Optimized Splinter performance.
Polished decoration in Techy.
