Been sick the last few days so not much done on #Cryptsmasher except I've been laying down the music and sound effects. Amazing how much music provides polish to the game! I'll have a video soon ☺️

To my fellow #itch game devs: as I get closer to a demo of Mickey Mouse Cryptsmasher, I'm wondering if it's better to make a separate demo page or keep the demo on the main game page. Thoughts?
