Additional Context

I finally had the time to commit to my first game jam! I initially wanted to solo develop for a few reasons, but I decided against it and the night before the jam, I formed a team to fill the areas I'm weakest in (art and music). The 2024 GMTK jam's theme was "Built to Scale," and after a few hours of brainstorming, I designed a game built off of a vague idea that I've had for a while. I was the only person in the Unity project, putting together the entirety of the game myself.
