Hey everyone! I’m participating in the Cozy Game Jam going on right now, and I wanted to give a little sneak peak on what I’m working on.

Here it is! The game is called Plants n’ Pots, a relaxing game about planting, exploring, finding exotic/rare plants, and more!  
I’ll update you guys on the progress of the game, stay tunned!

Hey uh can I maybe just maybe please _borrow_ your code for the text? I mean it’s gonna look completely out of place in my code (does not know optimization), but that text function would be _ **very** _ useful for my submission.  
Pretty please?

Sorry but I’m using this for my project and don’t plan on letting anyone else use it. This code is for my submission and my submission only. I am however completely fine with letting anyone use it after the game jam.

@Octodemon in this part of the code:

I think you’ll have better results if you put a “pause until NOT is A button pressed” before the check for the button press. That will prevent you from accidentally triggering twice if the player holds the button down for too long.
