+# Autumn Lisp Game Jam Game
+
+A game jam! It'll have mazes and be ray-cast based!
+
+I'm drawing heavily upon my previous ray casting exploration, which can be found
+[here](https://forge.niblock.tech/vagabond/fennel-ray-casting) ([Codeberg
+Mirror](https://codeberg.org/VagabondAzulien/fennel-ray-casting)).
+
+This project was started with the
+[min-love2d-fennel](https://gitlab.com/alexjgriffith/min-love2d-fennel) project
+authored by Alex Griffith.
+
+## Assets
+
+This project uses textures made by thatguynm found here:
