Thanks for all your reports, this is of immensive help hunting down those bugs! Update 0.9.0.5 increases the display amount of the leaderboards, improved trap and enemy projectile visibility, enemies now don't spawn on top of your current player position and plenty of further fixes and improvements.

New Features

Increased Leaderboard Ranking Display Amount

Since the first leaderboards already have more than 100 player entries the current leaderboard display limit of 100 has been raised to 300 to show the positions of all current players. We will test this change as we approach the 300 entries if this is causing some issues down the line. If not we will keep increasing the limit to display everyone's ranking. A new error message has been added to the stats window when corrupt player stats have been uploaded instead of crashing the game.
