Can you get out and explore the world?

Post-Jam changes


In my tiredness I introduced a last-minute change that triggered a division by zero. I have fixed it, but the fix was done after the deadline. Also after the deadline I made some adjustments to the force of the electric fan that was making one of the endings unreachable, changed the ending screens to give credit to the creator of the donut image, changed the window title to Little Scout 2 (was showing Mani, from a previous entry) and added a txt file with links to the resources I used.

If you disapprove of those changes being made after the deadline please feel free to either not rate or to give low ratings. The game is rushed, bugged and I doubt it will do well in the ranking, but I did my best and I'm looking forward for any feedback I receive and also to play and give feedback to everyone else's games!
