Issue:
When playing the Journey of the Prairie King arcade game, a bug occurs if you escape (ESC key) during the transition cutscene after defeating the first boss.
The sequence is:
  1. Kill the first boss in Prairie King
  2. Pick up the log drop
  3. The mini-scene begins showing a gopher carrying you to the next area
  4. Press ESC during this transition scene → returns to main Stardew Valley game
  5. Re-enter Prairie King and load the saved game
  6. Bug result: Player spawns at the new location (area 2), but the boss from area 1 simultaneously respawns and begins attacking. Additionally, both audio tracks play simultaneously (boss music + new area music), creating overlapping audio.

Pattern noticed: This happens consistently when escaping specifically during the gopher transition cutscene after the first boss defeat.
