This week's update is a bit different! I'm turning in my grant documentation for the prototype this week, so we had one last tonight, and it went really well! Was great to see it on the big screen, and to get some amazing feedback. Expect a video soon ✨

Small cosmetic update for this week – starting to deck out the level! BUT, under the hood 🛻, I entirely refactored the wind 💨 system and deleted a couple hundred lines of code! 🎉 (And now it works...) 💨✨ Shoutout to @grgcnnr for the chat that spurred the refactor ✨
