Had to check the description to win the game, however I still enjoined it quite a lot. The artwork is fantastic and the whole mood is very mysterious. Also nice touch with the escape from the game mechanic (tho it's kinda funny (and fair in a way) that you can't quit if you didn't make it past the tutorial xDD)
From the first meeting with the wolf I knew that I was playing something special. The choice of words, the voices, the artwork - everything felt just right. And it got even better further on. Amazing game. Could you tell us what inspired you?
Oh, now I understand why they say that AI is an existential threat to humanity :) GG!
I liked the game too, great art (the promo is one of the best) and music, also idea of stealing the scythe is pretty neat. I only wish you made at least one checkpoint.

Amazing compo entry, combat felt really smooth and dynamic. I also liked how the sound effects combined with the minimalist drums soundtrack.
At first it was definitely hard to adjust, but after already a couple of tries I started to make some progress and the game became quite fun. The art, animation, and sound effects are top notch! (p.s. the Titanic bonus got me laughing xD)
The super-attack got me laughing xD. This little game is a treasure, thank you for giving it us!
The controls are clunky, it's true. However it makes the game SO MUCH scarier. It's almost Lovecraftian horror... I managed to finish the game and see my beautiful child, but the things I had to do to progress was very disturbing xD (but actually a great mechanic).
I liked the sense of camaraderie this game gives. Fighting with your fallen friends, trying to get a high score to help the next player. In a way, it has more purpose then most single player games xD
Liked the idea, felt really fresh and unique. Also liked @dninosores comment, there is really a lot of potential for different puzzles.
@pete-valeo Thank you for the feedback. Interestingly, you are right about "killing time" activities, but there are some actions in the game that will help you last a little longer and see a different outcome.
@olguinne Funny how your comment fits perfectly with the description of life in general :) But you're on the right track - some of the activities in the game are more sensible than the others and can help you delay the inevitable.
@levi Thank you! Our artist drew a sequence of character positions, from which we created a Unity-animation. The key point here is having a lot of these positions (we had six).
How the hell do people still come up with a new versions of tetris? I amazed, sick game!
Loved this game very much. As you get used to the spawning controls, you will actually start to see the depth of this game: timings, placements, amounts needed, etc. The only thing I wish you could add is some sort of cursor change/highlight for the selected unit type so I don't have to check the bottom of the screen (but maybe it's just me with my shitty peripheral vision xD).
Wow, it seems like i've been playing this game for the past three days xD, and now i actually feel like a statue :) Great concept, I rarely see type-based games so it felt really fresh to me. Well done.

In fact, the lack of an exit button fits perfectly with the theme of the game. A bit rude right, but there really isnt anything we can do about it now sadly. xDD
When you get a hold of the mechanics (jumps and cooling) - game gets interesting and actually really intense. There are a lot of games with "timers", but when you're literally on fire it somehow make you sweat more (no pun intended xD)
