Full Walkthrough with limited dev comments:

I made this game as a Unity project for the 2024 Ubisoft Australia Students Game Jam. Ubisoft used this as a marketing attempt, but I want to remind you that Ubisoft sucks; has anti-consumer practices; hates you; and you should never buy their money grabbing games.
