Refundable bridges are in, but honestly I think it adds unnecessary complexity, it feels cluttered and it leads to moments where you refund bridges by mistake and have to do some awkward shuffling around to get them back.
I'm removing this and adding a simple rewind button so that the player doesn't need to restart the whole level if he makes a mistake.
