Honestly, I never quite worked out what I was supposed to be doing — I wandered, I survived, but the goal stayed out of reach for me. I see from the comments that I'm not the only one, so take it as one more data point rather than a complaint.
What did land: that low humming drone in the background. It does a lot of work for the mood, and finding out all the audio is synthesized in code made me appreciate it even more 🎃 Nice work!
