I couldn't find a windows exe when downloading the zip package. Wish I could have played.
Congrats on finishing the game jam!
I'm very sorry about that. Due to a technical error the Windows download was hidden for a while. It's been restored now and it can be downloaded again. Thank you so much for reporting it!
