About Knight Dreams
Knights Dreams (yes I know the title is dumb, I just couldn't come up with a better title that was short enough to fit the space I had reserved for it) is a tiny arcade endless runner action game that was made for js13k competition (2023). You can play it here: https://js13kgames.com/entries/knight-dreams (I'm guessing the url, it might be incorrect, in that case look for the game manually). So, whatever you are going to do this with this code, please don't take any inspiration...
Knight Dreams was submitted to the js13kGames 2023 competition by Jani Nykänen. It earned competition recognition. Like every js13k entry, the entire game — code, art, and audio — fits in 13 kilobytes, a constraint that rewards focused, clever design over bulk. If you just want to make changes to the code, running `tsc` on the root is sufficient.
