5 stars for the graphics. Could be a very good game if enemies included in the game.

I love your team's sense of humor :joy: Really nice looking game.

Man, you implemented the theme in a really dark manner. The time lost when playing video games, that's a tough price to pay, is it worth it? I really liked the art. I also know the pain of having a game not quite work out. My entry for this game involves AI in a stealth game. Let's say it's not quite what I envisioned.

I loved the comedy in this game! It killed me, the theme was well set in a dark manner, I agree with that. Pretty funny and GREAT game!!

I played the game without reading the description (which is what I always do). After the experiance of 10 minutes or so, I read:

"The time you play this game is the time, and as a result currency that you lose in life."

...

I'll now read game descriptions thoroughly in the future. Thank you for teaching me this. on a side note, good lighting effects.

Nice graphics. I can see where this was going, ands its a shame, But as far as level design is concerned I like the feel.

When I did not know happen of the game, I read the description again. Oh that's a dark humour. hahaha!

Really funny way to present your game ;) It's really dark by the way. Good luck for others jams

I'm loving the graphics, and the dark humor in it!

Well, the level generation, animations, visuals in general, and game description are pretty spectacular!

One of the best pivots I've seen in gaming. You guys are something else and I appreciate you.

BEST GAME EVER!

Haha... props to you for submitting this despite it maybe not being all you wanted.

I can unironically say, nice pathfinding! I tried to break it, but it navigated terrain really well. Especially good for something with procedural generation! Nice job on generating the environment and it's details too; it made some nice mazes, with a good blend of trees and rocks, and the occasional patch of light.

I think if there were some silly reward stringing me along, like a few lines of dialogue or poetry, some collectibles or goals, or even like... places with colors to see other than red, I'd have happily loped around in this weird forest for a bit, appreciating the trees and mazes of rocks and whatever.

My one unironic critique would be that it'd have been nice to hold the left mouse down, and treat the direction of the mouse from the character as a movement vector. Some way of more directly controlling the avatar, with less clicking.

Whatever your goals here, this was a nice little hellscape walking sim featuring a nightmare beast. Congrats on your first LD entry, and thanks for sharing it with us!!

I actually liked the music.

Oh and definitely top 10 anime plot twist.
