Thanks:

I worked on this game tirelessly for #lowrezjam23 hosted right here on itch. It was 15 days of self-inflicted hell and I decided to step outside my comfort zone and make a  game using the Godot game engine. I would have given up after the first line of code if it wasn't for Godot's awesome community.
