The Wild Badger Update
This one is a minor update mainly to fix some issues with text-to-speech on Mac and Linux, and also to address some feedback I got about text-to-speech generally. But I also added a wild badger to the game that Iām happy about, and that makes for a cooler update name, so this is the Wild Badger Update!
Special thanks to Michael Taboada in the itch.io comments who helped me fix text-to-speech on Mac and Linux, and all the feedback and suggestions I got from the AudioGames forums and the Discord! š
Enjoy. š

Minor Update #3
Several users on the AudioGames forum requested a text-to-speech feature that turned out to be pretty easy to implement, so I added it, and Michael Taboada reported a Linux issue in the comments on itch.io that has been fixed now. So here's a tiny update with those! Enjoy. š
