    I'm at the start of level 4-5, where there are 2 paths immediately at the start. There is an open door on the right path, which quickly leads to a dead end with a laser upgrade. The left path looks like it leads to the level proper... but there's seemingly no way to go there. Does anyone know if I'm missing something obvious (I did try flying around the entire asteroid to check for other openings), or is something glitched? It wouldn't be the first time a glitch has caused me to restart an entire season... Screenshot attached.

    I have this exact same door and I can't get past it either. Figure anything out?

    @jungis: I finally did, though I feel like it must be a bug. But after about 20 minutes of shooting, poking, and prodding literally everything I could try, I managed to barely squeeze through that little crack below the door- highlighted by a blue oval in this screenshot. It worked going in and then out, so it seemed reliable, but I still can't believe that was the intended way to go in this level. Not only does it feel really glitchy, like you're moving through the wall, it's completely unlike anything else you've done the entire game. I found this game to be riddled with weird bugs and glitches, which is pretty bad for something that's this punishing.

    Had the same issue too. Seems weird to have that as a recurring bug at that particular moment. If I had to quit there I would have been pissed.

    @dhiatensor: Yeah, I would have not been happy if had to abandon that season there. Especially since I had already encountered 2 different bugs earlier on that did force me to restart: One on the season 1 boss where it started taking 0 damage all of a sudden (after shooting it for 10+ minutes, I eventually gave up, killed myself, and used my coins to retry and complete that stage). A second bug had me get stuck in mech form and not able to grapple, on a mission that required you to grapple an object midway through a season, so I had to restart. For a game that's punishes you so hard for restarting a season (potentially losing an hour+ of progress), being this buggy is pretty unforgivable- this is like the one game that should not have progress halting bugs. Damn shame too, because it would be a pretty neat game if it actually worked.
