This is good O.O
Well made game, really like the artwork. I would have liked the cold to deplete quicker near a fire though and the fire to deplete quicker too (maybe as the night goes on, make it harder), once I got the fire fully going I just stood there until sunrise.
Really nice artwork. Good game overall.
Good game!
Too dark for my taste, it was quite difficult to find bushes for example.
Maybe going out to camp on a full moon night would have been easier :P
Fun game, I found myself becoming quite determined to make it through the night. I like the addition of crafting so it wasn't just collection. Nice job!
Good aesthetics! Love the models and the UI. There are definitely some issues with darkness, on a trackpad I kept not realizing I was staring at the ground and getting lost. The strategy I ended up using was to run in circles while staring at the fire so I could see where I was and if anything was nearby, which wasn't very fun gameplay. I also really struggled to build an axe early enough to win, and it seems like that's the only way to do it.
Very well made game. There are so many different smartly made mechanics at play here. I really like how when you get further away from the campfire it gets harder to see where you are at, giving an air of mystery and a desire to explore to the game world around you. I’m really impressed you were able to build such a robust and nice looking UI and in such a small amount of time. The action bar looks great! And the writing is really good too!
Great survival game! It was kind of hard to find all the initial tools since you get the torch last and the scene is already pretty dark and just gets darker. Maybe having a bit more raw materials closer to the fire initially would be helpful, but the atmosphere and gameplay are very strong. Well done
Such a great survival game! it was really dark and spooky, was there anything out there to hunt you? or just scare you beyond all belief? That would be cool, even if it doesn't hurt you. Very well done! :smile:
That was really well made! I didn't quite survive, but I gave it my best. The mood is great, it's dark, claustrophobic, and I was really worried that there might be something scary out there in the dark. I wish there was some sound to go with the game. It would have really put me in the game to hear the dying crackling of the fire, lone steps in the ground, maybe an eerie sound in the dark. I also wish that when I crafted an item, that it would go directly into my inventory instead of having to manually pick it up and go back to the crafting UI to use it again. But all in all, I really enjoyed that. I want to see more of it!
Great name for a game, by the way.
wish i know where to orient myself in the dark. I go too far and in the dark i don't know which horizontal and vertical anymore. Maybe some pointer where the fireplace is?
nice survival game.
I like the idea. First time I had Problems with the control (ESC close not the crafting menue but the fullscreen). But the second time I won really easy.
so it's really hard to see anything at the beginning because it's so dark. but it's also a lot of fun. unfortunately i had to realize that if i move too far away from the campfire i freeze pretty fast. please make another version with sound. all in all a great game.
