Correct Dodge the Creeps' copyright info
It originally said that "Abstract Platformer" was copyright kenny.nl. This is not true. "Abstract Platformer" was dedicated to the public domain using CC0. "When CC0 is applied to a work, copyright no longer applies to the work in most jurisdictions around the world." (Source: https://creativecommons.org/faq/#how-do-cc-licenses-operate) It also said that "Abstract Platformer" was created in the years 2010-2020. While the "Abstract Platformer" webpage (https://www.kenney.nl/assets/abstract-platformer) does say "Copyright © 2010 - 2020", I believe that that's a copyright notice for the website itself, not the asset pack. I'm not sure when Kenney started working on "Abstract Platformer", but I'm confident that it was published in 2016 because: * All of the files in the ZIP archive are dated 2016. * "Abstract Platformer" was published to OpenGameArt.org in 2016. See: https://opengameart.org/content/abstract-platformer I didn't think that it made sense to call that section of the README "Licenses" anymore because "[...]CC0 is not a license; it is a public domain dedication."
