Flutter Build Failing on Clean Installs - flutter

Question

Suddenly my emulators and physical device fail whenever launching applications - I have tried a bunch of different SDKs on new virtual devices in Android Studio and my Pixel 3a phone but it keeps failing on run or debug. It works fine on Chrome. I have tried editing my gradle files in various ways using code I found in similar questions but nothing works so far.
Here is what I get in debug console:
Execution failed for task ':app:compressDebugAssets'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.CompressAssetsWorkAction
Everything is looking good on Flutter Doctor.
