What was the origin story?
Continuation of a game submitted for a previous game jam. Still needs a lot more work.

Wow, huge scope!
Great timing for throwing a grenade in front and running toward and past it so a chasing monster gets blown up!
Thanks, glad you thought the grenades are fun. I did play a lot with their timing.
I really liked the whole idea to be honest! Fantastic work, the crafting was simple but worked.
The movement was a little slidey so would like that to be addressed.
Fantastic entry and vibe.
Thanks for playing! I'll see what I can do to make the movement feel a bit better.
It was quite interesting, I loved the monster and world design, felt quite desolate.
You can use the monster's slower turning speed to outmaneuver it, it's fairly challenging to pull off, pretty fun :]
Thanks for playing! haha yeah , my intention was for the player to use their tools/equipment to fight the monsters but you can also engage them that way - I like when games enable the players to figure out their own solutions to problems.
Loved the art, the level design looks great and I really liked the design of the enemy sprites (*☆ω☆) they were very interesting! Very creepy, much like lol
Good job! (･ω･)b
Thank you thank you!
The gameplay gives me good memories of The Long Dark. There it is also you racing against hunger an cold.
Was so proud when I figured out how to cut the tables into wood with my axe. But somehow the crafting of the medikit didn't seem to work - so death was unevitable at on point.
Thank you! I actually haven't played that game before, I'll have to check it out!
Hmm, it could be you died of cold, you can use the torches and/or get indoors to get warm enough and the frozen damage will get healed. Or could be you didnt have enough crafting materials.
In either case, the health/freezing system needs work for sure. I can see it not being obvious how to protect yourself from the cold in it's current state.
Also I plan to rework the crafting system. There is a little recipe display in the UI above the torch/medkit/bomb but it's probably not obvious how it works right now.

Sounds like the next best step. I was missing a campfire to warm up, I read that torches warm you too, but that isn't so obvious. Was able to craft them from the splinter wood, also medkit, but somehow they didn't fill up my "hearts". Anyways, good to hear you are planning some rework. Looking forward!
Well done! I think this could do really well with just a bit more polish like maybe a particle effect for snow falling down or something similar and maybe smoother animations. Besides that I think this honestly has a lot of potential!
Thank you so much! Yeah a visual overhaul, including that kind of polish, is probably what I will be working on next.
Ambitious game, would love to see it expanded more!
Thanks! Yup planning on expanding on it a whole lot more.
