Glad that you liked it! Sorry that you encountered that bug that's really frustrating. I'll add a patch as soon as I can to fix that since it's pretty game breaking. Can't wait to play yours in a little bit!
Also, really bizarrely, I've never actually played "There is No Game", and honestly forgot that it existed! I definitely would have watched a playthrough of it on YouTube though back in the day, so I'm certain some background part of my brain was retaining its core game concept. We'll call it a core piece of heavy sub-conscious inspiration 😂
I'll 100% be giving that game a go though once I have a bit of spare time over Christmas as evidently I dig the concept lmao
