• Gameplay performance on Edge browser is unplayably bad.
• On other browsers, the colors are very washed out. Downloading is recommended.
• Occasionally, the 3D models will flicker(?), showing the default Godot skybox. If you manage to catch this bug on video, please post a link to the footage in the comments along with any other information you can give.
