disappointing that ai imagery was used in this project instead of supporting other indie creators by hiring one of the many talented artists who specialize in irish-themed artwork
Thank you so much for your interest in our passion project! Indeed, it’s hard to find artists who would work for free for a game jam project as we did for this one. If you’re interested in investment please let us know. You are also welcome to donate here. Did you enjoy the original story in the game?
