How does you game fit the theme?
As you play the shoemaker..."you're not alone" as these elves are not here to help make shoes.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All programming, art, development done by me. Only outside asset is paid for sound/music.

Eye Am Watchingnice job but it would be better if you put a tutorial or at least button meaning. I lit up the candles with right mouse button

TheOneMightyHeroPretty nice survival game! Had some good difficulty progression and was fun to juggle between doing shoes and candles. Audio and visuals are nice and compliment the game nicely. Struggled a bit with figuring out what to do as the action buttons weren't very intuitive though. The label you've got on screen to describe the actions is the same as the buttons on the main menu which makes it seem like they're clickable

Sentient BuffetHad fun with this game!
+Art was really good, premise/concept felt very intriguing.
-I had a hard time figuring out what to do at the start though. This could really have used alot more onboarding features i.e. button prompts, sign posts on what to do at the start / main objective in game.
Overall though, good stuff!

Ant SwarmReally good game, loved it, recommended!
+ Just loved the concept of the shoemaker and the graphics, how it is not the usual "not alone" interpretation however the atmosphere totally gives you the not alone feeling :)
- I needed some time to figure out at the beginning what to do with which controls, but maybe that was intentional and part of the adventure.

Don't screamReally fun and cool resource management game.
Pros: interesting concept and use of the theme, fun gameplay loop, cool visuals, great take on an old tale
Cons: a couple of the SFX are cheasy but that could be intentional, it's a bit unclear what you're supposed to be doing at first, it's a bit too long for how repetative the gameplay is and I ended up quitting after my second death.

The Corner of Your EyeExcellent concept and art style!
From a design standpoint, this game stands out to me as both well-executed in gameplay and in concept/theme. It looks and feels great!
More so, it feels super polished -- props to the design team for making the game seem like it's been in production for longer than x1 week.
I look forward to updates and future projects!
Interesting! Really neat idea. I did get a bit confused on what I had to do so maybe could make it a little clearer. Good job

Together AloneA neat twist on the theme, I was confused at first but eventually got the hang of it, great work.
