- Improved Renderer and RenderTarget performance, resulting in a 40% increase in frame rate.
   - Improved SaveTypeWriterReader: It will now attempt to compress files if the compressed size is smaller; otherwise, it will default to an uncompressed format.
   - Fixed and improved Sound Manager:
   --- All SoundManager.Play methods now return a SoundInstance, allowing you to set up transitions or other effects.
   --- Sound assets can now be set to always loop, eliminating the need to use blocking to keep them playing on a channel.
   --- Removed channel blocking, which also led to the removal of fade-in and fade-out functionality.
   --- Added functionality to check if a sound is playing on a channel based on either the sound asset or the sound instance.
   --- Added sound instance pan and sound channel pan, allowing sounds to be adjusted to play through the left or right speaker.
   --- Improved Master Channel behavior to function properly across all channels.
   - New Input System Features:
   --- Expanded Axis Input Handling:
   ------ Added GetKeyAxisPressed, GetKeyAxisReleased, and GetKeyAxisJustPressed for keyboard input.
   ------ Added GetGamepadAxisPressed, GetGamepadAxisReleased, and GetGamepadAxisJustPressed for gamepad input.
   --- Improved Action Handling:
   ------ Added action-based axis detection for gamepads and keyboards.
   ------ Supports IsActionPressed, IsActionReleased, and IsActionJustPressed for more precise input tracking.
   - Fixed a bug where the FPS counter incorrectly displayed 30 FPS, even when the actual frame rate was much higher.
   - Object Pool hs been updated to version 9.0.0.
   - Fixed a bug with bitmap font line height. Text now renders correctly and aligns as intended.
   - Added ChildrenAs to improve child entity handling based on a type.
   - Added Camera Zoom
   - Bug with resizing the window.
