Please also note that the name of this will change when I come up with a better more witty one. Right now it's very much WYSIWYG which is fine but not exactly my vibes for official release.

I'm also hoping to prod someone else into doing spelling & grammer checking for me on this project so the devlogs will be the raw straight from my brain characters so take any hints with a grain of salt and know they might not be the final forms."
