How on earth did you do this alone. As your first game on itch? xD

Very impressive and very unique idea. Well executed as well. It is super stressful but super easy to understand as well.

I’d like to have a little more time between the encounters in the beginning, but at the same time i understand that the stress is part of the game.

The game is so fun to play

Super original concept and overall really polished.
I was a bit confused at first, so I would've appreciated an in-game tutorial and as someone already pointed out in another comment, I would've added a cursor to select the bad hikers more easily.

Great job! :D

Very fun concept, and I loved the apps and messages. It was a bit hard to select the right hiker, so maybe having an indicator of sorts would be great!

I'm glad you liked it. Thank you for the feedback some sort of highlight or even a cross hair should help make grabs easier. Appreciate you taking the time to check it out!

this game is SO fun! I’m not super great at it but its so satisfying when I do catch someone right at the last second for a detail

… and then inevitably die to the next group haha

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's really funny to watch people play cause they do the exact same thing. One moment of excitement for getting someone then they slowly descend to their doom. Thanks for playing!

What a weird hike that was :) You nailed the messages, really funny!

Developer

Just a little different ;) Hopefully the next is better. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for playing!

I liked it, the idea of the app is great and the death messages are hilarious, who would've known that the person hiking in front of you is a serial killer, reminds me a bit of the papers please gameplay.
