Very creative game!

I was a bit overwhelmed at the beginning by the controls and gameplay.

Love the music and the vibe of the game!

Developer

 Thank you for the kind words!  :)
Yeah, as there is no introduction yet it can be overwhelming.

Great mood, but gameplay could be improved

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Sure,   we were not able to implement a lot due to the time limitations and there are some bugs left!  Any things you would like to improve gameplay-wise?

Hey Linus, very cool! Definitely one of my favourites from this jam, will there be a bugfixed-build soon?


Liebe Grüße

Developer

Thank you very much!   We will be talking about the future of this project after the jam rating is finished but we  also really enjoyed building this prototype!  :)

Hey Zwi,

we will be continuing to work on this game! There's many systems in there we'd still like to showcase better :) For example, NPCs acutally have an inventory and use the items you give them. Thanks for the kind words!

i like it, very nice relaxing game, how is it connected to the theme?

Developer

On your journey you may meet other travelers. They may ask for items and by giving them those items you can show them your solidarity. You can even give them more if you want to and maybe they will  give you something in return if you meet them another time.  
We want to show that solidarity and giving to others is important even if you just got to know someone and even if you may not meet them again.  For us solidarity is something you can and should show  to others without being asked for it.

I love the calming feeling of this game, especially from the art and design of sitting around the campfire! After figure out how to feed the player and gift items to other characters around the campfire, I found the overall game engaging and fun.

Developer

Thanks, I am glad you like it. Yeah, we did not manage to implement a tutorial or something similar but it is also about finding out how to interact and I am happy to hear that you were able to do so! :)

Very smooth and relaxing theme. I felt immersed in this game. But I wasn't exactly sure what I was supposed to be doing (how do I get more items?) Either way, I enjoyed the time in it :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing, Mike! :)
We want to   create a nice atmosphere with this game.  On your journey from one fireside to the next certain events may happen  and these events provide you with new items which you can use to  share with others or  use yourself.   The   goal is to enjoy your journey , meet new people and eventually, reach the last fireside.
