Trouble accessing a game asset from p5js project

Hi, I'm having trouble loading an asset.
My game structure is simple:

game.zip
- index.html
- build/
  - game.js
- assets/
  - font.otf

I am trying to load the font in, but seem to be getting some XML response.

I load the font in the js using p5js with loadFont('../assets/font.otf', ...

Is there another way I should be handling this? Are the paths off?

Thanks!

Since your script is presumably loaded from index.html, the path should be relative to that, I think. Either way, make sure it works on your computer first. That way, if it no longer works after upload, you'll know where the problem is.
