Double pressing the down arrow while airborne triggers a free downward
dash that doesn't consume jetpack charges. Uses a 0.3s window for the
double-tap detection, resets on landing.

Implements session-based analytics tracking that sends gameplay
stats to the Horchposten API. Adds stats.{c,h} for accumulating
per-session metrics (kills, deaths, shots, dashes, jumps, pickups,
damage, time) and analytics.{c,h} with EM_JS bridge for fetch()
calls to the backend. Client ID is persisted in localStorage.
Session start/end hooks are wired into all game lifecycle events
(level transitions, restart, quit, tab close via sendBeacon).
Analytics URL/key are configured via data attributes on the canvas
container. Non-WASM builds compile with no-op stubs.

Raise hard map size cap from 4096 to 8192 via MAX_MAP_SIZE constant.
Replace fixed 16 KB fgets buffer with dynamic line reader that handles
arbitrarily long tile rows. Check calloc returns for tile layer
allocation.
Add entity distance culling: skip updates for entities beyond 2x screen
width from camera, skip rendering beyond 64 px margin. Dead entities
bypass culling so cleanup callbacks always run. Player, spacecraft,
drone, and moving platforms set ENTITY_ALWAYS_UPDATE to opt out.
Replace naive 4-neighbor flood fill with scanline algorithm (O(height)
stack instead of O(area)) for safe use on large maps.
Raise MAX_ENTITY_SPAWNS from 128 to 512 and MAX_EXIT_ZONES from 8 to
16 to support populated large levels.
Level generator: add vertical variety with tall levels (46 tiles).
Segment generators accept ground_row parameter, SEG_CLIMB connects
height zones, transitions inherit predecessor ground row to prevent
walkability gaps. Climb segments respect traversal direction.
Jetpack boost: add blue flame particles during dash (burst + trail)
and continuous idle glow from player back while boost timer is active.
Camera: add 30px vertical look-ahead when player velocity exceeds
50 px/s.
Fix flame vent pedestal in gen_pit to use ground-relative position
instead of map bottom (broken in tall HIGH-zone levels).
Add TigerStyle coding guidelines to AGENTS.md adapted for C11.
Add tall_test.lvl (40x46) for height zone validation.
Introduce moon01.lvl as the starting level — a pure jump-and-run intro
with no gun and no enemies, just platforming over gaps and dodging falling
asteroids. The player picks up their gun upon transitioning to level01.
New features:
- Moon tileset and PARALLAX_STYLE_MOON with crater terrain backgrounds
- Asteroid entity (ENT_ASTEROID): falls from sky, damages on contact,
explodes on ground with particles, respawns after delay
- PLAYER_UNARMED directive disables gun for the level
- Pit rescue mechanic: falling costs 1 HP and auto-dashes upward
- Gun powerup entity type for future armed-pickup levels
- Segment-based procedural level generator with themed rooms
- Extended editor with entity palette and improved tile cycling
- Web shell improvements for Emscripten builds
