AI Usage Notice and Disclosure:

AI Coding tools (Claude Opus 5 by Anthropic) was used to aid development. It was only used by Andy, for these things, and nothing else:

• Built a modular, data-driven UI animation tool to assist the creation of UI animations. Animations themselves were done by hand, as well as their designs.
• Fixing a few minor gameplay & ui interaction bugs
