Level Editor released!
I've released an external level editor for creating levels! you can add your levels to the `levels/` folder in the game's PDX, and change the first two numbers in the level file to position it in 2d coordinate space in the level selector.
Be sure to send me any levels you make for a chance to be featured in the final game! You can find me on Discord as ren.penguin
Here's a guide to the editor (this guide is also included in the zip file):
