Installation Instructions: 

Before you stretches a sea of sand. You stand in the midst of a desert. Looming like a proud spire above you is the crumbling remains of a Radiotower.  You mount the ladder and ascend to the operating booth. Decaying, but miracously still active, sits the old Operator's switchboard. Tower diagnostics report that the tower's internal archive – which logged all previous transmissions through the Tower – is still at least partially active.

An updated build fixing graphical bugs, adding aditional letters & polishing some rough "gamejammy" corners will be available on my Itch page.
