I’ve poured a lot of love and soul into this project, and I truly hope it’s just as fun for you to play as it was for me to create :)CreditsThe game was made possible thanks to incredible free assets found onlineGame Development: Written in C using raylibMusic: Background music by Aila Scott (not affiliated, source: itch.io)Font: Kitchen Sink (source: itch.io)For a full list of all assets used in the game, please visit the GitHub credits page.The game doesn’t have a native Linux build, but it’s fully playable on Linux and Steam Deck through Proton.
