Finally getting some time to play through Wizordum and having a blast. Definitely reminiscent of those good old first person games from the 90s. Tons of fun!

Spent the last day getting my desktop setup with a new layout. Installed Borders and Yabai to tile/style my windows. Hid the dock (I always use spotlight anyways). Switched to Alacritty for my terminal, and then used tokyo neon theme for just about everything. Feeling productive with this setup!
