This is really a strange game / experience. 
As you have mentioned, that you didn't finish the game. Next time maybe focus on getting the core gameplay first, and then the visuals and polish. I did this mistake once before. In my case it resulted in ugly performance issues (mostly related to particle effects, using GPUParticles and only in web) because I didn't have enough time to investigate and fix this

Developer

Focusing on core gameplay implies that I have a plan 😆 It’s good advice, thanks!

Thanks for playing!

I like this one a lot, it had really great vibes. I'll definitely be sticking around for the axe (:

Developer

Thanks!

Let’s just say there’s a lot of questions that need to be axed…

Thanks for playing!

I really liked this strange experience! especially the audio (music and voices), well done!

Developer

Thanks! The music is from Ovani, the voice is mine 😁

Thanks for playing!

Really enjoyed this normal experience! Great vibe, and like others I was very eager to use that axe... Nice one!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I need to practice my naming of things, this name was terrible. Islands Bounty maybe? Bount-eye-ful Island?

I’m already working on making the axe do something!

Thanks for playing!

Nice! I was thinking, it doesn't seem so bad here... beautiful sunset, jazzy sax music. Once the eyes came out, though...

I also chuckled when the narration broke the fourth wall explaining that it was the end of the game.

The eyes on the trees were creepy as hell XD. Interesting art style! My theory for the ending would be that it's a dream, based on the colors and the absurd things happening :P

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I spent longer than I care to admit getting the eye movement feeling good and creepy.

It’s a good theory! You’ll have to come back and see when I finish the game 😁

A bold move to make a 3d game in a jam which is nice to see. It's a shame you didn't get to finish it. The eyes growing on the plants got me a bit scared haha, I thought I was seeing things. I love the vibe of the chill music combined with weird things happening. Great entry!

Developer

Thanks! I really wanted to nail that feeling of being watched and this was the best I could come up with :D

Nice work! I did want to see what happened next, was not expecting it to turn creepy :P

Developer

Thanks!

Wow really nice work. What a strange feeling of cozy creepy. I would love to see how things go from there. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’ve already made progress on finishing it 😁

Rip, I was so ready to start chopping :(

Not a bad start though, nice job! :)

Developer

Yeah, it felt really mean to stop there. But! It means I get to make the next bit carefully!

Thanks for playing!
