The immersion is really successful, I love it. It's a bit like the game "The Long Dark"
 
On the other hand, the wolves who are not afraid of the fire, it surprised me. Normally, that should be the case but when I approached, I noticed that the wolves were not physical but rather, ghostly.

A great experience

Thank you kindly for your feedback! I'm really glad you liked it :) About Wolves: that's the idea of the story. Wolves aren't physically real :)

That is what I thought. Thank you for confirmation.

Now, the game was just an experience or are you planning to make a longer game?

After jam end I plan to extend game with more mechanics and story, somewhere up to 2 hours of gameplay

I'm happy to learn it because at the start, I thought it was just an experience.  Can you tell me if the demo will be released on Steam ? For the game, it's probably too soon (Epic Games/Steam)

I say to you: "Good luck"

Nikolai Evtihiev | Payara GamesDeveloper4 years ago(+1)

Yeah I think demo will be there for sure, but I think actual time for game completion at the state of my vision is about 3 months. I will update devlog when game will be out as full experience :)
