From me, to you:
You know this began as a personal project but has grown organically over time. Likewise, I hope you find tranquility, peace, excitement, purpose, or the motivation to continue persevering by playing this game. Maybe you don't, but I really hope that you do.
It isn't perfect, but then again, nothing ever is. It can get a little tough at times, but so can life.
Hang in there.
You're not alone.
Love,
Nick Oueijan

The sprites which differentiate you from your friends when playing local co-op (or via Steam's Remote Play) are no longer just differentiated by color. Each player has a unique sprite, which should make identification easier for folks with some kind of CVD. Hope this hel…
