this in incredibly well done for something that was made in 5 days,  i really love this. the sound design is incredible, easily the best i've seen so far, and the voice acting is super solid too. i dont know if this is based on or inspired by something, but i don't think that i've seen anything like this before, its a very cool concept and i think that if it were a full length game it could be very special. you've got all 5 stars from me, i would love to see more!

Had me feeling like I was this guy. Really dug the games! It was a really creative with the mechanics and the blindfold! Great work :)

i cant believe you totally ripped off my game, man.


But yeah, the art and atmosphere were really good! The way it was presented did a good job of leaving a lot to the imagination. Also those monsters were relentless!

It took me a bit to get the hang of the mechanics, but it was pretty engaging when I got a grasp on things.

Good work!

Really like the atmosphere of this! Big fan of Autumn & Echo’s previous game Wibbly Witches so was excited to try it out - would recommend!

The game gave me chills, not be able to see in the woods is so scary :( Mechanics are amazing, and the drawn visuals are so so goood

Submitted

This is such a solid game. It took me a few runs to fully grasp the audio cues and mechanics but once I did I was having so much fun. The sound design is really well done and properly creepy, I was properly freaked out a few times. This deserves to be one of the top games of this jam.

It was confusing at first, but this was quite a unique experience. Great Job!

I LOVED this! Taking away player ability to see in horror is not new, but this one really makes use of it making player REALLY rely on sound and fast thinking. Would love to see this with more scares and maybe even mechanics or locations. Fantastic job!

Submitted

really sick game, im a sucker for horror and this was amazing, love the mechanics, and i started to build a rhythm after a bit of getting wood and running in the second someone was coming at me aha!

great work!

Oh what a unique game. Great sound design and legit made me uneasy with fear haha. Unfortunately I think I bugged the game. I think I died but it didn’t move on, so I was stuck infinitely in what I think is the death state (muffled noises, red screen) gathering sticks and being hit by the monster.

Otherwise this one is awesome! I’m giving it a 2nd try.

Edit: happened to me twice! D: I’ll try again later, I really want to beat this

Thanks for playing, we're super glad you liked it! 

Unfortunately yeah, that version of the game is bugged and won't let you die a second time, and it's all because of a single line of code, lol. If you wanna give beating it another shot, we put out a bugfix version which you can find on the game's page. Good luck!

Oh great! I really enjoy this one the atmosphere is top notch

Amazing game with unique mechanic! Everything is great, the sound design, the artwork, the atmosphere, even the death music! Really feel the horror atmosphere from this one. The fireplace mechanic reminds me of Don't Starve 's campfire.

You put it together well! Great atmosphere and cool sound design!

Submitted

Really well done! It's been a while since I've seen such an atmospheric game. Sound design was splendid as well, and I found myself really creeped out! Sometimes the vagueness of certain audio signals gave me some issues, but it definitely helped with the scare-factor. 
Good job!

Very unique!

What a great experience! (I'm the person from the discord who worked on TermiNera)

The atmosphere, sound design, and concept are all great! Very creative. I didn't have a chance to complete the game yet but I will soon. I did get somewhat far in to my knowledge. I hope you feel better soon, chronic illness can be exhausting-- Awesome work, though!

This game is so good, it's hard to believe it was made in only 5 days. It's so tense, hearing something trying to open the door after just locking it for the first time was so cool. And for a game you're supposed to wear a blindfold for the visuals are incredible. Unfortunately I did encounter a few bugs that made it impossible to beat the game, but still really well made

Very interesting and creative. I appreciate people trying different things.
I didn't finish it because I think you need to be in the right setting and mood to play these kind of games.
Side note, the intro sequence looked really cool!

Developer

Thank you!
