Dev Notes:

Here we are for our 4th October Ludum Dare as a team :) This year we made a top-down, creature-roundup shooter~ We tried putting a lot more emphasis on polish like usual, and while we wanted to keep the scope down, we wanted to put in a lot of "simple things" that ended up being overscoped in and of itself.

Pete: appreciate all the love and feedback from the music, with the ratings coming out soon I wanted to share the fully realized soundtrack of the game! Link down below!

Issues:

- ~~We noticed that the difficulty scaling is not working like it should. We have another enemy but it's incredibly unlikely to encounter him to the point no one is.~~
- ~~Also our clock timer is short, like us testing a game run short. We didn't intend it that short either.~~
- ~~Also it seems like we're having difficulty get the right resolution / screen size and aren't understanding the web export's full screen functionality. Please be patient with us!~~
- Web export's audio pops. There are interruptions, not sure if that's a fixable issue. Uploading an executable soon so people can enjoy it standalone if they like! Our template supports exe's with a fullscreen button that's just hidden for web export.

Fixes:

- Barely touched difficulty scaling, just added 2 other minutes to the clock timer and that fixes most of the issues. People should be able to encounter the previously mentioned rare enemy! Rare, but encounterable!
- Figured out itch's resolution settings! The game should able to be enjoyed as intended with the proper resolution size.
- Fixed walking off the world to the right.
- Fixed some minor visual glitches.
