"How Many Dudes" is now playable in the BROWSER! It's a little game we cooked up for the GMTK jam last weekend to answer the question, "How many dudes does it take to beat up a gorilla?" And equally importantly, "How many toddlers does it take to bring down 75 dudes?" Turns out... about 4,000.

Crashlands 2 by @bscotch.net has a ton of chill biome songs, and this one is one of my (Patrick) favs. The Husk area has some western overtones, and I wanted to pay homage to that while still keeping things a bit weird/alien.
