made the finale
That was awesome! I really enjoyed watching you guys play the game, and also discovered a lot of other cool games from your channel. its really fun to watch because you guys are always having a good time.
Really enjoyed it, I can't really comment on the graphics since, I drew them and their quality is questionable. But I can say that the programming is really well done. Haven't encountered a single bug within the time playing it, and the idea of having the player draw the art is really unique.
I guess the only problem I have is that there's no dark mode and the color scheme is quite blinding.
Hey thanks for the comment! I could add a settings option for the background color (from white to some level of gray). Edit: you can now do this in the new update :)
