I think it's an awesome idea. But one question, does the game have sound? If it has, I don't how to unmute or something. 😅

Thank you! Currently the game has no sound. But definitely something I will add in a future update!

Awesome. It's great how it deals with the heavy narrative of the original games.

Thank you!

Great job. Really enjoying it. 

Thank you so much!
