The First Martians

This is my submission for Godot Wild Jam 53 ("Assembly Required") and my first time participating in a game jam. The gameplay is extremely simplistic but I hope you enjoy the game.

Audio Warning:

Unfortunately, I developed this game while leaving my system's audio levels very low. This meant that the audio in the game seems reasonable to me but gets extremely loud if your system's audio levels are not set a very low level. I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. Please lower your audio settings prior to starting this game. Thank you for your understanding.

Browser Support:

Due to Godot 4's use of SharedArrayBuffer, this game can only be played in Chromium-based browser (which means it will not run on Safari or Firefox for example).
