Why do I have to own discord to play this game, I want to, but there is no way I'm getting discord just to play a silly little Mario game. There is no reason to need discord to play, you're just separating the people who wants to play this game from the people who can play this game. It would get WAY more downloads and likes if you made it available to the general audience. And I'm not trying to bag on it, it seems like a fun game from what I've seen of it, but making only run with discord is just plain stupid. Many people who want to play this game are under 13 and can't get discord.
I BEG of you to release it publicly because many people like me have to feasible way of playing it.
I hope this comment helps you make it public.
