DEV LOG

Not much to say here. I'm happy to see someone has reached the end of the ARG; adding a custom character as a soft reward seemed like the least I could do. I also feel a little stupid for not having Ferdk in the Oval Mode room already, since he's always been a huge asset as a creative partner and as a professional. Go check his YouTube and support him on Patreon if you can!

Also, if you like the game (or even if you don't!) please leave a review! Obrigado gozaimasu!
