Game is stuck loading! + My assumption #96

I'm sure a bunch of people are familiar with experiencing this problem...

Correct? Well, I got sick of being stuck on this screen every time I was reminded about Adventures With Anxiety.
On mobile devices, the page would always reload until it gave up. On PC, it loads up to a certain point before stopping.
I wanted to play the game again, damn it! So I did what any other person who didn't know how to write in JavaScript would do...

Download the source code, boot up Visual Studio Code, and find a solution.

The very first thing I tried to do was skip the entire loading screen entirely, and so I disabled some lines in main.js to achieve this.

Now, I wasn't actually expecting that to work.

I guess I should have, because the loading screen was the one thing keeping me from starting the game.
I was fully expecting the game to not be functional if I carried on, but then I noticed something.

Okay... so... it was clear by this point that the game was FULLY FUNCTIONAL.
There was just one little problem...

There is no sound.

None at all. Zilch. Every time I refreshed it led to the same thing, a functioning game with no sound.
So here's my assumption... the game gets stuck on the loading screen because the sounds won't load as intended.
I'm not a genius or anything, but that is the ONLY explanation that makes sense to me, because if the game is stuck with no sound, then that must be why the loading screen is stuck two thirds in.

Now I'm wondering if this can be easily fixed, so that everybody else that had faced the issue of the game not loading can play the game once more.
