///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I’m done fully working on this game now that I have finished the art book. I will no longer be updating this page. 

Use this devlog as evidence that one person can make a game and keep it updated daily-weekly.  Anyone who can’t is lying and probably should not be trusted with your money and shouldn’t be supported as there is a high chance that they aren’t actually working on the game.
