How did you choose to implement the Theme: Feral Beast in your game?
It's a game about surviving from a Wolf-ish monster in the woods.
Did you implement any of the optional Bonus Challenges, and if so, which ones?
There is a day-night cycle, where you prepare for the wolf-y monster during the day, and then you hopefully survive the night. And some of those preparations are traps.

A fun solo journaling game! Could be a little bit harder on Day 1, I think. I've made a blog post sharing my game playthrough and thoughts.
I'm glad you liked it – and you're not the first to mention the beginning might be a bit too easy haha, so I'm going to tweak it a bit! Thank's for the feedback!!
I really enjoyed this, reminded me of those Fighting Fantasy books.
Got destroyed first attempt with poor dice rolls. survived 2nd try.
Good job! your game inspired me.
Thank you for playing! I'm really happy you enjoyed it!! And awesome that you were inspired, that makes me very happy, haha! I'll check your game out soon ^^
Cool game, I made it to day five, seems tough even with a weighted die! Great presentation with the instructions, even funny at some points- awesome color scheme and styling / font choice.
Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you liked it, even if the monster got to you!
Would you say the issue was that the game is a bit unbalanced, or just bad luck? If it's unbalanced, I can totally do something about that. If it's luck, I can only say that four leaf clovers and horseshoes always work for me ^^
I might have just had bad luck, seemed fairly balanced!
