The game's cool and the music really adds to the whole "Lost in the forest". Feels like you're frantically trying to find a way back.
Sorry, I couldn't play the game. Windows detected a virus called Wacatac.B!ml
It's a false positive -- sometimes this game trips Windows antivirus, as do many.
You could tell Windows that it's okay and run it anyway, but no hard feelings if you don't want to after that.
Thank you for letting me know specifically what it was detected as though -- I'll see if there's anything I can do to make it less sussy to Windows.
The game looks really good, the grass definitely lowers the frame rate so I'm glad you added a no grass option.
Woah, using C and OpenGL is hardcore, nicely done.
Worked on my machine, music and ambiance was hella spooky. Definitely meets the limitation.
The dutch effect in the camera work makes me feel like I'm in one of those nightmares where and my legs won't follow my orders to move me efficiently through the grass. Drowning in grass! Love it!
I'm glad you liked it, warts and all!
And thanks for letting me know it worked - it's kinda tough knowing whether the engine relies on some things that are specific to the few machines I've tested it on.
Not even sure, didn't work for me sadly.
I'm sorry to hear that, but thank you so much for letting me know.
I issued a patch should make the game work on more machines.
The game required a GPU and drivers capable of OpenGL 4.5 before, but now it only requires OpenGL 4.0, or OpenGL 3.3 if you play the version without grass.
