 ## credits for assets
 Ive used font from [OpenFont Library](https://openfont.org/) (the one called Caveat Brush)
-all other assets are made by me, images are made in Krita.
+while not a direct copy I took heavy inspiration for the plyer sprites from this guy: https://tnypixels.itch.io/top-down-rpg-character-sprite-walk-idle-animation
