This game was made for Round 4 of the Salty Studios Game Dev Co. (SSGDC) game development challenge, where a game is to be created with a given objective in a short timeframe! The objective for this Round was to make any kind of game following the theme "Avoid the Light". This theme was taken from a game jam that I saw but can't currently find to give credit to 😅 If you know what jam this was please let me know so I can fix this failure of a credit.

If you missed any previous rounds of the SSGDC GDC, you can find them here.
