Really great tense gameplay, music and crickets keeping you on your toes, you listen to the crackle of the flames while you set a bear trap outside, I love it! The UI was a little small to understand at first, but after playing and understanding resource gathering it clicked for me.


Great stuff!

Love the hand-drawn style and really impressed with the overall presentation and polish! Felt like I was leaving the safety of home each time I travelled into the forest, great atmosphere. I haven't finished it yet as I kept losing my bearings as I got too greedy collecting supplies, but that's on me. I'll have to revisit it soon to save my frog sis!

Thanks a lot for your feedback. Our secret is simple, just create the game by 2 days and not sleep 1 night for polishing

The game is solid. The atmosphere creeps me out. But still, I found myself lost hahaha... maybe it's just me being noob

Developer

Hi there, thanks for feedback. Yeap it's kinda funny that you can lost, it's not some noob stuff, cause I'm also lose several times cause just cannot find a home. It's kinda interesting to take in mind your fully way and always think how to not lost

Idea is cool art as well good job. Game needs tutorial. for example i don't know where i can find metals for an axe and map to know where am i and where is house. but good job!

Developer(+1)

Hello there, thanks a lot for your feedback. After some time frog will say that good items is far away, so player maybe can think that metal can be far from home. Also that item isn't axe but noise trap, player will be also notified which role of this item when craft it. 

Just small clarifications.
