I got to the part where you're supposed to find something to see in the dark with. I couldn't find it after looking for 10 minutes, so I think your game could benefit from some more guidance. (Also turning off camera motion blur would help your visuals pop a bit more, in my opinion)
This title card looks stunning--so bummed I can't play it on my Mac!

@cheese-team you already got the torch, I know the game is a bit blurry, we have to made some improvment, the torch dosen't last long enoug (I think 2m/2m30s, should.ve been long enough), and we had to make some last minute tweek (in the base game the light source (torch) wasn't in your inventory from the beginning and you had to craft it, we will deffinilty do some updates and upload a new version with some improvment and bug fixes) @teenythanos yes sorry we, at least, wanted to make the game on window for people to try it out, but when the bug are fixed and some tweek are done we will upload it on mac-os too
I liked the theming, but once it got dark I totally lost the road even with the torch. The amount of assets made it run rather slow, and a lot of them were floating.
I couldn't figure out where to go. It said there was a road, but I couldn't find it. I wondered around for a while aimlessly and then it got dark. A few more signposts or land marks might be helpful.
The atmosphere of the game is spot-on! Unfortunately the signposting is not great, following the path is at times hard, and following it in both senses I ended up getting lost. I did manage to find a lake, but wasn't able to drink from it. A pity, some extra time to fix those small things would have made this even more interesting! Nice entry!
The game is running quite poorly in terms of performance, also a lot of floating trees.
I found some plants and brown rocks to collect. There is a road I followed, didn't get anywhere though. Got through the night with the tourch, and mostly without, cause it ran out. It took me a while to realize that I had to use scroll to switch inventory items. (You might wanna mention that there is Spacebar for jump and Scroll for inventory selection in your controls description)
Overall I see a lot of effort that went into this, models, code, art and some music, it is unfortunate that you didn't manage to polish the game, but I know it is a challenge for 3 days of work. "A" for the effort though! :)

I ran around for a bit but there seems to be a memory leak because it runs poorly on my computer and I have a monster computer. Good looking game but maybe there should be a way to point the player in the correct directions as I didn't really see the path from the beginning.

Interesting game, but I also had massive performance problems. Also, having clearer directions would help, since once it gets dark, it's pretty difficult to see the road even with torch on.
