Musics
*a man falls out of it and lands on top of a mass shooter*
Evening humans and non-humans! I has come to show you the music make for the game make! Praise be to the altar.
*begins mass shooting the shooter*
These frequencies vibrate with multiple intentions! Some are practical, some are vain, and some are just me fucking around!
The musics can be found at here: https://soundcloud.com/leif-ian-anderson
Also, the musics can be used by anyone for anything, cause I don't give a fuck about property of the mind! Steal it all! Steal everything!
Good day humans and non-humans, and power to the game make.

a higher default amount of clutter)
The more clutter temporarily goes into the negative, the more
walls get removed. (ice being the weakest and metal being the
most resilient, followed by earth and carbon) (staff walls

will lose all of their stationary walls) (structures, mobile
walls, and stances don't get removed in this manner) (the
flanking status is hidden)
