Hello and welcome to the Update Logs for Disaster Time!
Before we get there, I would like to thank @Alvin_Blox for his amazing tutorials on game scripting and designing. His YouTube channel can be found here.
I also am thankful for all of the disaster survival games out there for inspiring me to make this game.
