Just pushed a quick hotfix to the demo that should alleviate some of the windows crashes, although I won't gurantee it fixes all of them. It also adds localized winds, incidentially.
I'm going to have to look into this more in the future, but for now exporting the game in debug mode appears to have fixed a lot of the crashes I was getting on my laptop, and doesn't have much of an effect on gameplay. Literally speaking, the game is gonna theoretically run a little slower and be ~20mb larger but neither should really be noticable.
Linux and macOS builds unaffected.
