The art is really nice ! I had a bit of trouble to play at first but then it went on well ! Nice tutorial too, it's really smooth and helped !

kayn 2022-10-04 09:47

Really loved this game. Fun and beautiful !

The art is fantastic! Great game, well done!

I LOVE IT. The artwork is incredible. The sound fits perfectly. The 10 seconds are not so "in your face" like other games. Original idea. Fun for a few minutes. Maybe an upgrade that makes you faster in the snow could work.

Small info: the menu does not work in full screen. But the game itself does, so that's good!

Love the art style and mood of the game, the premise is something different in the jam for sure, good job :)

filipe-m 2022-10-04 09:57

Loved the game, especially the graphics and the sound, which built up this dark and mystical atmosphere! Amazing job!

cute graphics. Interesting 10 seconds usage. Gets a bit boring afteer some minutes. But is pretty good, well done!!

Really nice atmosphere and art style

Incredible art, well done! Concept is interesting too. Overall everything looks well polished

lespaul59 2022-10-04 10:07

@mrmaico thank you for your words and for the information, we try to fix this :) and we might add a speed boost up - good idea :)

nilolo 2022-10-04 10:07

Fantastic atmosphere with art and sounds! Everything fits together nicely. My only suggestion would be to add more visual feedback for when the player/fire health is low. For example I missed my fire going out while I was chilling in my camp doing some upgrades.

@tam @kayn @omphh @apostle @stefan-b @filipe-m @snappypath @drunkardwolf @paul-giovannini thank you all so much for playing our little game and for the comments and the nice words! :)

@nilolo thank you for your comment and your nice words :) very good idea i think a better indicator for your health and the flame could be a good upgrade for the overall playing experience!

@ideaspersecond thank you so much! And congratulations for beating the game :)

Clean entry ! The audio is a bit unbalanced with really low bass but I create a cool mood ! The game also create a great sense of urge to get safe and the campfire have a nice comfy atmosphere to it !

Very nice game! This game grabbed our attention because we also made a game about lighting in the snow. The art worked very nice and the menu art is very charming! I felt a bit overwhelmed at first with the time pressure and so many things to do, but it felt right after a short while. I liked that you put the effort explaining how to play at the beginning and that you made the end achievable. Great entry!

The character moves a little slow for my preference, but it's a neat little game with great atmosphere

tankou 2022-10-05 19:23

Beautiful game. I liked the atmosphere and game play Also you did a good job with the artstyle.

clonze 2022-10-05 19:36

I vibe with the survival aspect and atmosphere of this game.

rafale25 2022-10-05 22:11

Excellent game, the visual is top and the game is well balanced !

rickylee 2022-10-07 15:26

I survived \o/ such a cool game ^^ great mood, I wish it was longer, not a complaint cos its a perfect length for the jam, but if you went ahead and made it bigger Id loove to see it ^^ really well made!

gamedevtraum 2022-10-10 03:30

Really nice experience, I survive the night in the third attempt, I was enjoying going into the wild and colelcting resources. Excellent game

"I am the watcher on the wall. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn..." :)

Awesome. Really good graphics and the music that both matches and creates an ominous mood. The whole experience feels polished and complete. I don't have even one complaint. Very nicely done!

Really nice experience. Neat graphics and music. Love how the character has to trudge through the snow. It was a small decision but contributed really well to the overall mood. Agree with others that maybe we could pick up/make speed-ups after several rounds. Also didn't feel threatened to repair my fence. Maybe add sound effects to indicate my fence is compromised? Overall quite a polished game. Good job!!

amarokczukay 2022-10-17 23:48

very nice mood! i really felt the struggle of this watcher! the gameplay is easy to learn but hard to master, i like it! great job!

I liked very much. Very challenging at first, but once you understand what you have to do, it gets easier. A great example of a jam game. Short, polished and with plot. I hate games without a story or with an incomplete story.

Congratulations!
