From the Developers
This game was roughly 2 years in the making, with breaks for national exams and other adversities along the way. For two high school students with a budget of roughly 120, we don't believe we could have made it any better. It's honestly amazing to us that it found the audience it did.
We hope you enjoy the game as much as we enjoyed creating it. If you have feedback or thoughts, we would love to hear them. We will continue updating the game for the foreseeable future until we believe it is complete and enjoyable for as many people as possible.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us.
