I finally played the game, and if was fun! I second the call for a download option, though. Hope to see more from you, this world was well put together.
I was sure I had read about the game earlier, but couldn't find it in the Finished Games thread on the forums. But I think perhaps it was on Discord, where I usually only log in if the forums are down.
After seeing some of the feedback in the game jam, I guess it must be a bit frustrating when so many players are unfamiliar with what an adventure game is. And the results in a game jam of that size with player voting is bound to be uncertain, as noone can play all the games. Good-looking thumbnails and familiar genres, along with young devs trading votes with each other, will influence the result list a lot. Your placement despite making an adventure game, is quite an achievement.
Thank you so much for digging through it!
Indeed, adventure games are more niche today than before but I'm just happy I managed to get people to enjoy a fun experience! 😊 And yeah, I was surprised by the game jam results myself too! Just means that gamers can still enjoy some discovery and exploration titles 😊😊
