Design Statement
It's your last night camping alone in the woods before you pack up and leave in the morning. My interpretation of the theme track was 'cozy'. But with a hint of nostalgia or something along those lines.

Some things I went for:
- Everything costs time (time is like your health). Walking, taking photos, skipping stones, sitting on the bench, it all pushes the clock towards sunrise, so you probably won't get to do/see everything on your first night (If I've balanced it properly)
- Standing still is free (doesn't cost any time/health)
- No combat or 'fail state'
- It's nighttime but things are visible in the moonlight, and you have a flashlight for the darker areas
- There's some light lore, but nothing super upfront
- When the sun comes up the theme track plays. The credits are a rundown of what you did in the night

It's your last night camping alone in the forest. Every metre you walk and everything you do moves the clock towards sunrise at 06:30, and you can't do everything. Explore the camp, the lake, the hilltop, the stone cabin and the cave, take up to 6 photos, and see what you find. At sunrise the night ends.
