Link down below! \n\n## Issues:\n\n- ~~We noticed that the difficulty scaling is not working like it should. We have another enemy but it's incredibly unlikely to encounter him to the point no one is.~~\n- ~~Also our clock timer is short, like us testing a game run short. We didn't intend it that short either.~~\n- ~~Also it seems like we're having difficulty get the right resolution \/ screen size and aren't understanding the web export's full screen functionality. Please be patient with us!~~\n- Web export's audio pops. There are interruptions, not sure if that's a fixable issue. Uploading an executable soon so people can enjoy it standalone if they like! Our template supports exe's with a fullscreen button that's just hidden for web export.\n\n# Fixes:\n- Barely touched difficulty scaling, just added 2 other minutes to the clock timer and that fixes most of the issues. People should be able to encounter the previously mentioned rare enemy! Rare, but encounterable!\n- Figured out itch's resolution settings!

Link down below! \n\n## Issues:\n\n- ~~We noticed that the difficulty scaling is not working like it should. We have another enemy but it's incredibly unlikely to encounter him to the point no one is.~~\n- ~~Also our clock timer is short, like us testing a game run short. We didn't intend it that short either.~~\n- ~~Also it seems like we're having difficulty get the right resolution \/ screen size and aren't understanding the web export's full screen functionality. Please be patient with us!~~\n- Web export's audio pops. There are interruptions, not sure if that's a fixable issue. Uploading an executable soon so people can enjoy it standalone if they like! Our template supports exe's with a fullscreen button that's just hidden for web export.\n\n# Fixes:\n- Barely touched difficulty scaling, just added 2 other minutes to the clock timer and that fixes most of the issues.
