Graphics are great dude :) The camera "shake" on the attack animation was a bit annoying and some music would make it more interesting.

the last gem really exists?

Yeah the shake animation is a bit much, but otherwise great look. Try using cinemachine for camera movement next time. Makes it really easy to get better cam behavior.

Loved the graphics and as screen shake connoisseur myself i always overuse it however the gameplay itself was a bit bland, cheers.

Hey, [Pros] Nice graphics and feel from game [Cons] My head hurts from that camera. Add there option too look with mouse. I was missing jump, it would be much better to travel around the world and jumping around. I stuck in trees and I can not do anything. Some free stock music at least(nature etc) would be good for this.

But good job :)

The graphics looks great and you really have a sense of exploring a forest. I think the game play in it self tho is a bit lacking, maybe some puzzles or something to break up the game play and let the player do some thinking right now it feels a bit empty. You have a nice base to work of tho.

A fun game, with cool graphics, and as simple as it is efficient. I had a couple of bugs while playing (went through the map twice and fell into infinity ^^') but this didn't stop me from searching those gems ! Congrats guys !

Thanks for all your feedback guys we really appreciate it and we are glad you like the game :)

Interesting, I can definitely imagine this being expanded into something more, with perhaps limited time to search in the day, then the player must return home before nightfall, the end goal being to get all to escape but something comes out at night perhaps.

Either way, cool art and I like that the player had a little idle animation, the moving animation was a little too fast and I do think the camera was a little dizzying, especially when left-clicking, but overall a cool game, especially with the even further limited time you ended up having.

I believe you should have made different terrain height and create a bit of roads using rocks and terrain colours. In the current state the area is quite bleak.

I think the choice of camera angle, and fixing it to where you are moving really helps add to the 'lost in the woods', almost claustrophobic feel and I think it works well with game. Lovely graphics also!

Although not really the most unique concept, the games charm comes from it's fun gameplay though, absolutely fun to play

“Impressive game, Very cool concepts. I left wishing that there is more. Had a lot of fun “

Like the graphics. It would be nice to add the sound of the forest, the singing of birds (I say, in the game of which there are no sounds). I was able to find only 2 gems. Sadly

I got lost in the forest. :( Love you graphics and consistent artstyle but camera jiggling made me a bit sick.

daria-toni 2019-10-14 21:07

This is very good for the prototype, it's a shame that there is no music and sounds. There's a good atmosphere of the woods somehow. I think you should keep working on it! The graphics look nice.

Nice entry!

aozo 2019-10-26 14:15

Good entry, but I have a lot a trouble with finding the gems, maybe I missed some hints

mrstari 2019-10-27 12:55
