I enjoyed the setup, and watching the player go to his obvious doom. I did expect it to be more personalized to the story, with the whole falling out narrative, and not just the generic lost in the woods setup. And then it turned out to be a creepy monster.
Thanks for the feedback! I had quite a bit more planned, but with the time I was given this was the final product, I'm thinking of doing a more refined and remastered version soon.
This is a weird little shock horror game. I like the unusual framing of coming into the woods to see an old friend who wants to make amends; if I was the player, I woulda just stayed home! The execution of the jumpscare is a little cheap and not too well integrated into the environment, but I think it is hilarious playing on the player's gullibility to go round to the back of a creepy barn to get disposed of.
Thanks for submitting this game to the SCREAM JAM!

Thanks for the feedback! For the jumpscare, I was planning on adding something a little more complex, but sadly, I didn't have enough time to do so, and planned on some other stuff as well, but ran out of time. Thanks for running this game jam, it was fun to participate in!
