How does the game fit the theme?
The game has some suspicious characters and an odd environment with mysterious secrets and a sense of unease.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
We found pre-made audio assets from the internet, and edited some of them.
How many people worked on the game?2

The visuals look wonderful! I do feel like there should've been more to uncover but that's just me and my open-world brain. Nice submission! ^^
I’m not sure I fully understood what was going on or how to beat it (I got a middling ending, it seems), but the visuals were immaculate. It reminded me a bit of Paper Mario and A Short Hike! I loved the warm, cozy feel of it all–despite it taking place out in the freezing cold.
It's relieving to play a game with an untrustworthy vibe, rather than a game that tells you "make sure to jump on the spikes!" again! This was a gorgeous entry with some beautiful lighting and I love the effect of the cast shadows on 2D sprites, alongside the shaders. The dialogue was all cute and forboding and strange and it led to an atmosphere I was delighted to sink my teeth into for a little bit. An awesome time!
Great atmosphere, both audio and visuals. I like that the game is not just about "go here and fetch this" but rather it gives you room to explore and make choices.
wow the perspective of the game and the visuals are soooo good.
素敵な雰囲気のゲーム。私もサウナに入りたくなりました。 サウンドもキャラクターもとても良い！
Very cozy game! I really liked the atmosphere, the colors and the mix between 2D and 3D. The sound also fits the game very well. Good job!
The Visuals and Audio are outstanding and but it went from trust no one to trust not even this game. like i did what the game wanted me to do and still last message was...well the protagonist left hungy or somewhat. which ultimatly ruined the experience. the game was successful to keep me playing this but left me in delima that what even i played
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL! i love love love the 2.5d aesthetic and the ambiance of the game; really reminds me of adamgryu's untitled paper game demo. had to look at the guide because i kept getting mid endings by just. seasoning the sausage. very polished very fun
Really loved this and the multiple endings!
Absolutely love the sound design and the athmosphere. I got some nostalgia of walking through the cold winter woods at night to get back home to the nice hot fire from when i was a kid. Super cozy game and the 2.5D looks really good, love it!
It also gives me kinda the vibe of lego games, might be the ghost studs and environment hahaha
I'm not so sure about the theme fit tho, the characters all seem like some nice trustworthy folk id go to the sauna with lol
thank you so much for playing!! i'm happy to hear it brought a sense of nostalgia, i can also relate!
(SPOILERS)
did you get the "good" ending by following the wisps, where it turns out the main character is heating up the sauna to cook everyone? haha that's what we were going for with the theme, but i'm not sure if it came across well :D
Woah art is amazing! This is super cozy and all put together very well! The lighting was incredible need to learn that skill!
Loved the art and vibes, very original and cosy! Intriguing story and characters!
I like what you were going for with the art but 3d assets throw off the feel a bit, nice easy to understand game, really like the wisps that guide you where you need to go, not sure if it fits the theme very well but i still liked playing it, good job guys! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
Hi ! Like other people I see, I love the art-style and mix of 2D art / 3D textures and gameplay. The plot and atmosphere are nice too, but I wish there was more to the story !
I also like how the light bulbs guide us toward interesting points in a smooth way, they integrate well with the landscape so it doesn't look superficial. Your UI is good too.
The lighting was really great and the sprites looked awesome! Very well done overall... the storytelling was also really good and kept me interested. Nice atmosphere and a really polished little game.
Very nice art and the vibes were definitely unsettling! When I got into the ready sauna for some reason the Q to exit didn't workfor a bit, and I though maybe the tree guy has locked us all in :D Great job!
oh my god haha, that would have been a good twist, also! thanks so much for playing :D
Neat cozy game. Loved the visuals and story!
these visuals and atmosphere is insane i love it so much
Love the mix of 2D and 3D! Very cute artstyle, especially the player character.
