Eh... I felt bored in few minute then for a moment enjoyed safe zone then bored again and quit. Sorry. Make it more dynamical please.

This game is free and was made in like 2 days. I'm finished with this small project. it's not a game you're not meant to blast through, it's a slow methodical game, that requires you to use the map in the safe house and keen-eyed exploration to spot landmarks and avoid the gods in the woods. It's also not linear, it's an open-world style game, so pacing is really up to you.

Yeah, I know. I play many "slow" games like this. Anyway - it's my opinion.

Really enjoyed this game. As always, your atmosphere is super on point. You make games that are easy to get lost in, which I assume is intended. I really appreciated the message of this game, and I would love to see more devs get personal with their art like this. Excellent job, looking forward to whatever's next!

For the most part, I enjoyed the game and I'll keep an eye on other games that might come out from the studio.

This was such a cool game for something that was made in just a few days. Without spoiling the behind-the-scenes story (I'll leave that for others to discover/interpret), the environments were great! Detailed in the right areas and a decent-sized map that I never felt lost in. 

The creature design is really well thought out along with the ambiance and music. The voice acting is really good and I felt really invested in the game when playing. A great, short experience that everyone will enjoy.

Good job, looking forward to your next game.
