Public Release Notes

This repository is a cleaned public portfolio version. Generated Unity folders such as Library/, Temp/, Logs/, and UserSettings/ are not included. Assessment briefs, reports, presentation files, zip submissions, and private assessment records are excluded.

The original project used external audio assets during development. Those audio files are not included in this public repository because their redistribution terms were not part of the source submission. The included videos show the prototype behaviour.
