so silly (great job me for being the first person to review in like four years)

I think you can guess by the title that this is super cool and silly and stuff
Basically, the only bug is when you add a lot of Acrobots, the four icons at the top can glitch out and the settings wonโ€™t work. This only happened to me once so I canโ€™t really give anything else. Just cool low-cortisol things bouncing around and stuff. Thanks for curing my mental crippling depression ๐Ÿ˜Œ
