first: this game is part of the bundle for racial justice and equality -- that alone should tell you about the dev. they support a fantastic cause, so the emotional journey that is a short hike should come as no surprise: it's a very satisfying experience, with a big world to explore and many side quests to complete along your journey -- and by completing them, you might just find your quest on this "short hike" easier to complete. :)
i really, really enjoyed this game, and if anyone is hesitating on playing it, i definitely say give it a go! you won't be disappointed.
and thank you to the dev for crafting such a beautiful game, and again for supporting such a wonderful cause!
