I felt the atmosphere of the desert. But, you show too much text and not on time.

Nice, deep story. The art obviously make it better even though it isn't made by you, I still think it was worth it. Mood on this was really nice. I think you could have added a sprint button though XD!
Pros: - Story - Assets, though graphics implementation felt like it could use more work.
Cons: - Clunky movement. Not being able to jump or even slope handling meant that I got stuck moving forward every time I hit a rock, and for this reason I did not finish the game. - I really felt like I should be able to click to see the next part of the story instead of waiting the fixed timeframe. With so much story involved, it starts to feel tedious and reading breaks immersion.
I liked the tone and pacing of what I saw but overall felt a bit lost and unsure of what I was meant to be doing asides from moving forward. I think the lighting may have been a bit too heavy? the shadows were incredibly dark and made it hard to see where I was moving. Maybe spend a bit more time on the collision? It was a very annoying everytime I got stuck on a bit of rock. Audio was really nice and I liked the visuals.
Oh man, i'm good with the game, but why many games this time near 1/2 GB in size !!!
Wow ! It's wonderful !
I got near the fire and suddenly I was in hell. After everything changed the game never went back to normal. Great atmosphere though, just kind of bone-chilling.
Well I think it's not my type of game. Sad that the graphics and sfx wasn't done by you! Bet others like this more than me^^
Beautiful music
I had the same problem as Sondrian before me, that fire puzzle didn't switch off, and couldn't quite figure out how to move on! Tough without much feedback. That being said though, really nice atmosphere in the opening sequence!
Additionally, the fit with the theme was real nice!
I couldn't read the tree text fast enough so I'm not sure if I did it right, but interacting with the tree didn't seem to turn off hell mode for me. But it was otherwise great and creepy.
missing the jump, stucking a little bit. the graphic looks nice but i can walk through stones? i think that can be easy fixed. sometime i have little black flicker square but in all, its a nice game :hearts:
