Performance improvements

• Some of the code responsible for lighting and world chunking has been rewritten in C++ (instead of Godot Engine's scripting language), which should (hopefully) result in considerable performance gains, especially on lower-end CPUs
• This should also eliminate the micro-stutters when moving quickly through the world, along with the occasional freezes when using any kind of teleportation - both caused by inefficient loading/unloading of the world

Poor slime blast got reworked again

• In an attempt to make the main ability more satisfying to use, it's been reworked to fire many small projectiles at a fast rate
• Overdrive remains unchanged and still increases the fire rate by 400%, allowing you to fire insanely fast

Other news

• Frostfire Pineapplemental got a small update and feels slightly less disgusting to fight, but only slightly
• Fixed an issue that was causing the character to stick to walls and ceilings (although I could've pretended that it's intended)
• The raccoon has somehow found a second trash can. This is getting out of hand, now there's two of those!
