Multiple fixes to one-way collisions , handling many cases where collisions would not work reliably. Multiple fixes to one-way collisions (new in beta 6). Core: Disable decayment of freed Objects to null in debug builds ( GH-41866 ). GLES2: Fix glow on devices with only 8 texture slots ( GH-42446 ).

While this is not a feature per se, it fixes a major annoyance that users have had with pointers to freed objects unexpectedly being re-assigned to new objects, causing hard-to-debug issues. Note: Breaks compatibility for users of this plugin, but it's easy to adapt your code. C#: Allow debugging exported games ( GH-38115 ).

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. I also liked how Haxe has decent autocompletion support in VS Code, which reduces (but doesn't quite eliminate) all the documentation hunting. and no WASM.)
