I LOVE this kind of small horror games, this is a nice mix of sounds and scary creatures, perfect atmosphere and terrifying creature. A few minor glitches in the camera handling, but nothing to ruin the experience. Good job!

liked the lil guy, monster was scary baby thing, gameplay and level design kinda lackin tho. was a large parkour section which then led to a small playground with baby and collectables and the mechanics of the game I still don't completely understand. I think this could've been fixed with adding a threat or collectables (or both) during the second half of the parkour section and adding a wither meter (which is what I'm guessing the mechanic was). besides those points loved the game-feel felt like I was playing an N64 game and I think this is a pretty neat game.

Smooth controls. Horrifying creature.

A minor point, but I would have liked to know a bit more about what I am collecting.

The climate plays a strong part in this game, really makes the simplicity engaging.

The sound design was a strong point—landing had a satisfying, meaty slap

The creature felt too easy to avoid. The tension would have been heightened if being spotted had more serious consequences or affected gameplay in a meaningful way

The level design felt overly open, which made exploration feel tedious. Some form of guidance for locating collectibles—even a subtle hot/cold mechanic—would have improved the experience

The theme "You don't have time" was well-integrated into the narrative, but it didn’t feel like a driving force in the gameplay itself. Incorporating time pressure into the mechanics would have better reinforced the theme moment-to-moment.

Was curious to thee more about this game when i saw footage on discord. This shader made it 5 stars in the art department for me. Really nice effect. You sure these are only 2 colors though?
Level design was good too imo. I felt lost in these dark caves but kinda knew where to go too. Good job in overall :)

this is pretty good for a game jam project. the creature is creepy enough to keep you moving. the only thing i would like to tell you is, that at the first try it is hard to tell, what and how you're suposed to do.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I think I'm gonna continue working on the game after the jam, so I'll make sure to make it more clear what you need to do

Looks really good — the monster is creepy. Trying to collect artifacts, gain time, and avoid the monster at the same time was challenging.

Thank you for playing and for your kind words!
