~~I tried to play your game but got this error:~~

Error: Couldn't load project data at path "." . Is the .pck file missing? If you've renamed the executable, the associated .pck file should also be renamed to match the executable's name (without the extension).

Nevermind it's working now!

It was awesome! It really reminded me of games like DOOM. Probably the best FPS game to come out of this jam.

Since I'm playing on a scientific calculator that doesn't have a mouse or scrollwheel, just a trackpad, I'm witholding judgement on the gameplay

but man

you nailed the 90's gritty FPS look, well done.

Thanks so much! That was our biggest goal for this jam to try to replicate those styles.
