Hi,

Currently I wish to add a C# sharp backend,
and also show some Unity integration.

But I am facing some health problems, some
nasty virus infection, which still persists

a little bit. Either I will be able to do
it in 2024, or you wont here anything

from me anymore...

LoL

Bye

P.S.: Some enemies might be happy if I bite
the dust, so it will be quite funny if

I can make it. But who knows?
