Awesome - you have a beautiful art style here! Visually the way the map appeared was cool too, and the story was simple but engaging. The gameplay was pretty fun, and there were some moments of despiration, I enjoyed my time playing it! The music was nice and suited, but glitched partway through for me, it started popping and I had to turn it off.
Very nice and beautiful game. I had some troubles to understand what is that makes you or your people die. Perhaps some hints to indicate when you are short on ressources could be useful.
Interesting game. I liked a lot the art of the game. It's a little bit confusing at first, but overall it's a good game.
This is a fun little exploration game. Unfortunately I encountered a bug: the map started to jump up and down between to positions rapidly which made me dizzy and prevented me from seeing what I was doing.
The graphics were absolutely spectacular!
The UI is kinda broken on a Mac with Retina display, tho. Text is tiny, and the menu is floating in the middle of the screen :sweat_smile:

Overall this was a really nice game!
Very cool. I was just a few tiles away from the end before i died! The graphics are gorgeous and the music was very enjoyable. The game play might have been a bit complicated for its own good as constantly referring back to tool tips isn't the most engaging, but overall I really liked it!
really amazing :slight_smile:
@ciaranw @flying-dog-fish @netmute Thank you for the feedback and bug reports, we'll do our best to fix these issues as soon as possible!
Sadly, the Mac version often gets left out because we're all Windows gang here. We'll try to look into it in the future!
The game looks great, although I didn't much like the shaking effect. The game felt a bit lacking in goals, and there seemed little to no incentive to pick up additional party members. If it were to be fleshed out I still think it could be a fun experience.
Nice art style, but the UI is way too small, I could not read the tooltips on my screen so struggled to understand what to do!
Cool art but i could not live longer than couple of tiles.
Very cool game. As someone mentioned, the font is a bit small - it would work for a TV or big monitor, but for a web game it was hard to read. Great graphics, music was simple but fitting. The map unraveling in front of your eyes is a very nice effect.
Is the map randomly generated?
Nice artwork.
I have the same UI issue as netmute; 4k monitor at 1.5x UI scaling. The character is also massive in relation to the tile sizes, this could probably be toned down a lot.
Graphics are nice and cohesive overall. The tile appear is a nice touch and serves as a fantastic "fog of war". I do wish there was a better way to visually determine which tiles were passable; often I'd get trapped without realizing it.
Gameplay wise it works as expected. I do wish there was a bit more variety in both events and mechanics, but this is already pushing the limits of what one can expect to reasonably polish in a Jam.
Overall solid entry. Nice work!
Great 3d art, nice OST, awesome overall. Idea of game pretty original and well made.
Best entry I've seen so far ะพ/
Similar bug as @flying-dog-fish here: After a single step, screen begins to shake and never ends. And by shake I mean between 1/4 and 1/2 of the in-game screen size. In one frame the character is at the left of the screen, in the next frame on the right.
Really nice game, I would love to see this be worked on further adding more to it, kind of got tired of bartering with gremlins so more events would really freshen up the game and increase the replayability. If you do make a post-jam version I would love to see more tiles and perhaps multi-tile structures, and to also have more decisions in the game which lead to different routes. I really hope you decide to continue working on this as you have something great, amazing job!
The first play in browser link gives a 404 error. Great atmosphere! Actually relaxing.
Really nice music and art. It creates a nice relaxing atmosphere. I feel if you expanded it would be nice to see some combat added into the journey. Maybe you have to go from town to town, risking it every time on your journey.
